Open rehearsal of “CLAM” by Cia. Femut

CLAM is a contemporary circus show that explores freedom from the intersection of acrobatic techniques, popular culture and a circular space.

Conceived for public spaces and intended for all audiences, CLAM combines the strength and fragility of acrobatic balances, the verticality and risk of the pole, and the symbolic transformation of traditional dances and giants into circus language.

The staging takes place in a circular space, like a traditional circus ring, where the audience surrounds the action. This arrangement creates an intimate and inclusive experience, eliminating visual hierarchies and promoting a space for collective reflection. Inspired by popular gatherings and community dances, the circle becomes a symbol of cooperation and equality, inviting the audience to actively participate and become part of the show.

CLAM claims freedom as a collective right, but also as a process in constant transformation, where norms are redefined to adapt to the needs of each community.
