Exhausted by a long journey, a – about – paladin comes to tell us, with his bullets and his words his difficult epic: that of a hero in the footsteps of Eros.
In the course of his encounters and trials, his hopes gradually turn to disillusionment, as cruel as his faith was great. And when the arrow of doubt pierces his tough armor, his own vulnerabilities come to the fore.
Compagnie Bella Gamba
Emmanuel Ritoux trained in the circus arts as a juggler, first at the Ecole de Cirque de Lyon, then at the Ecole Supérieure des Arts du Cirque de Toulouse (ESACTO). He then joined the Collectif Petit Travers as a performer on the piece “Nos Matins Intérieurs”, and went on to create the Bella Gamba company, in order to pursue his personal research into acting, clowning and juggling. “Street Cheval” is the company’s first project, accompanied by a partnership with Collectif Petit Travers.
