Do you know about Yokai? In Japanese culture, this name is given to strange and ambiguous creatures. They are elusive supernatural spirits, sometimes sporting human features or dwelling within inanimate objects. If we pay more attention to the world around us, we may discover that there are many things that we do not understand. This is the message of Yokai Kemame.
This unusual and hypnotic juggling show was born from the collaboration between two jugglers: one French, the other Japanese. Both have fun, between precision and contortion, and offer you an unusual and offbeat moment suspended in time.
The Defracto Company
This company was founded in 2008 by Laure Caillat, Guillaume Martinet, Minh Tam Kaplan and David Maillard, and aims to create new body languages and juggling languages. Each project is a collaboration; all actors are co-actors and participate in the design of the project. The music, scenography, and juggling writing are constantly experienced in a collective dimension. Based in Île-de-France, the company creates abstract and absurd performances- each one of them experimental and playful in their juggling, put together through minimalist and tailor-made sound and light.
The Defracto Company will be accompanied by three cultural operators in the Ile-de-France for the next few seasons: La Coopérative De Rue et De Cirque/RueWATT, circusnext/Ferme Montsouris and La Maison des Jonglages. A collective adventure to follow…
