Circus
Circus shows can be compared to poetry; they play on an infinite palette of feelings and emotions that overwhelm you more and more each time. At the Cirque d'Hiver-Bouglione, it's the magic that always starts again... Michel Palmer, aka M. Loyal, will present breathtaking artists and the Salto Dancers ballet will put you in the mood as soon as the Pierre Pichaud Orchestra has set the tone! Régina Bouglione, emblematic rider of the Cirque d'Hiver will enchant you in an equestrian number that only she knows the secret; Guillaume Juncar will make you swoon by revisiting the art of spinning the Cyr wheel; Housch Ma Housch will trigger laughter from young and old by performing hilarious sketches, including an irresistible guitar solo; Natalia Bouglione will captivate the audience with her mastery of aerial straps and her grace; Tyrone Laner will take on the role of a modern-day gladiator with impressive knife throws and crossbow shots in the company of Margo, an agile partner who has a good response; acrobat, gymnast, tightrope walker... The graceful Asia Perris is dazzling these three circus disciplines; the Rokashkovs will take us on a sensual, wild and acrobatic tango with, for a dance floor... fixed bars; Sampion Bouglione will establish himself as an eclectic artist who will captivate you with his signature juggling number, all while tap dancing; the performance of the acrobat Sára Nagyhegyi will not be far-fetched... even if the young woman performs an aerial dance number entitled "hair hang act" which is new and hair-raising; the Bello Sisters will form a charming trio that combines acrobatics and balances in a hand-to-hand of perfect harmony; the Empress troupe will demonstrate exceptional agility and originality with a fascinating and spirited bowling throw on the track and... in the air; Andrei Pogorelov will give you the thrill of scrambling to the top of the Wheel of Death, launched at an increasingly frantic pace.

Just like on the first day, he is delighted to present breathtaking acts. This supremely elegant, attentive and caring master of the place knows circus arts and the history of the most beautiful circus in the world like no one else! An integral part of this family of artists performing this season in Tempo, Mr. Loyal embodies a precious guide, a bond of complicity between the spectators and the magical world of the Circus that has made his heart beat for 4 decades.
This Ukrainian artist tours the world with hilarious wordless sketches, invariably triggering laughter from young and old alike. His hilarious sketches, including an irresistible guitar solo, have built his reputation and legend. He perfectly plays up this Professor Calculus look, giddy and mischievous, always the first to be surprised by his clumsiness. His talent and good nature are greeted with a torrent of applause and smiles from ear to ear!
This quartet from the East has decided to think outside the box! Imagine a sort of queen, seated on her throne, ruling the roost! This is Liubov's role, who, in "mistress-wife" mode, gives his three "subjects," Maksim, Edouard, and Dmitrii, a run for their money! These four jugglers demonstrate incredible agility and originality with fascinating and spirited club throws on the ring and in the air!
This Frenchman has completely reinvented this essential circus discipline! He knows how to captivate audiences with his presence, his dexterity, and... his acting. Because after eight years of gymnastics and six years of performing, Guillaume makes a difference on the track. He PERFORMS his act. A defector from the Fratellini Academy, he discovered the Cyr wheel at this prestigious school. This eclectic artist has also taken on the role of stuntman, notably as a stunt double for actor Romain Duris in Michel Gondry's film Froth on the Daybreak.
Is the Hungarian acrobat's performance a bit far-fetched? Yes, literally. This young woman with ebony hair has decided to bet everything on her bun. Thus, she brings a touch of freshness and fantasy to the dance floor! After studying for six years in her native country, she now receives standing ovations wherever she performs. It must be said that her breathtaking act, entitled "Hair Suspension," is mind-blowing!
His skill leaves no one indifferent. Watching him burst onto the dance floor immediately brings to mind a modern-day gladiator with whom it would be a bad idea to get angry. His knife throws and crossbow shots are impressive. Hats off to his seductive and agile partner who doesn't lack a response; Margo is anything but a foil! Their performance has wowed the biggest cabarets, like the Royal Palace in Alsace!
Once upon a time, there were Céline, Joline, and Laurène... These three sisters, from Italy, formed a charming trio that combined impressive acrobatics and daring balancing acts in a hand-to-hand routine that was as perfect as clockwork. These artists performed their act at the most prestigious events, such as the 22nd International Circus Festival in Italy, an iconic gathering of the greatest circus artists.
Is she a dancer? Acrobat? Gymnast? Contortionist? Long before her immense talent took her to the world's arenas, Asia, the young Roman, made her debut at the Sporting Monaco. She earned her stripes at Wiesbaden, a festival that showcases young European circus talent. A gifted artist, she is arguably the only woman to perform a split immediately followed by a spectacular and immediate perfect leg lift. This act was inspired by the great Anatoli Zalevsky.
Can you dance the tango? Probably! And on the high bars? That's another story, and you're not going to succeed any time soon! These artists from the East know how to lead us into a sensual, wild, and acrobatic Latin dance... not on a dance floor, but rather in a gym. Fans of artistic gymnastics will be captivated and will undoubtedly see the apparatus in a different light!
When you belong to the Bouglione dynasty, you can do almost anything! This is the case for Sampion, who has established himself at the Cirque d'Hiver and around the world as an eclectic artist who will captivate you with his signature juggling act... but not only that! Sampion never wants to take the easy way out. So, as a tap dancer, why not juggle while performing a tap dance routine?
All circus aficionados are familiar with this breathtaking act. It delivers a thrill and sometimes a sense of anxiety for some spectators, who are tempted to hide their eyes, so afraid are they for this intrepid artist! Andrei, grinning, scrambles to the very top of the Wheel of Death, launched at an increasingly frenetic pace... While ordinary mortals feel comfortable on solid ground, Andrei is never happier than when he imagines himself as Icarus on his infernal machine.
A child of the ball (her parents were famous circus artists), she captivates audiences with her mastery of aerial straps. This mother of two boys combines dance and acrobatics with a harmony that borders on magic; she knows how to create a poetic universe like no one else. Watching her soar through the firmament of the big top, we start to dream and wonder if this fairy of the ring is really real. We forget the technique and remember only the grace...
Her equestrian acts, the secret of which only she knows, are always enchanting! Her international career is not limited to these exercises, "but it's what thrills me the most," she confides! An iconic rider of the place, she inherited all the talent of her father, Émilien, a superb rider whose talent left its mark on the Cirque d'Hiver-Bouglione. Régina succeeds in sharing with us, each time, an incredible complicity and tenderness between her animal and herself. Her performance reminds us how much the horse is a friend of man and vice versa.
From the first minute, the 9 musicians set the tone by singing festive and spirited music! Immediately, childhood memories resurface... A frenetic tempo, accompaniment without a break to underline the emotions, the laughter, the performances, the suspense and the thrills. The maestro gives pride of place to the brass and his violinist whose solos never leave the spectator indifferent. As Mr. Loyal often reminds us: "The orchestra is the backbone of the show!"
The Cirque d’Hiver-Bouglione gives pride of place to all the arts and dance is not the least. To join this exceptional corps de ballet, Alec Mann, the choreographer, hired 6 dancers and 3 outstanding male dancers from France, Great Britain, Brazil and the United States. Spectators are demanding and scrutinize the ballet from its first steps on the floor. Technology is not enough. You need charisma, aesthetics and dreams. Fond of choreography that is always at the top, the public gives a warm welcome to this discipline that is inseparable from the Cirque d'Hiver!
