Enjoy a moment of relaxation surrounded by vibrant gardens, captivating agricultural landscapes, and welcoming spaces for leisure and social interaction. For six months, LUGA will serve as an open-air laboratory of ideas.

Chinese Pole & acrobatics

Do Artists Need Their Audience? Without a doubt—without spectators, there is no show. But can artists also rely on their audience physically? Miguel Rubio takes on this challenge with Playground.

Here, the staging depends entirely on the spectators. Their gaze, their presence, and even their bodies support the structure of the performance. Seated on eight chairs connected to the Chinese pole, they become a key element of the scenography. Those who accept this role will feel just how much the artist leans on them to keep everything in balance. Blending Chinese pole acrobatics, dance, theater, and humor, Playground is a performance full of surprises and extraordinary adventures. It is an aerial and absurd playground where comedy meets acrobatic prowess, suspended more than eight meters above the ground.

After collaborating with numerous companies and diverse projects, Miguel Rubio wanted to take the Chinese pole to the streets. He designed a self-sufficient system in which the audience itself becomes the pillar of the performance. With Playground, the magic of the Chinese pole comes to life, unfolding anywhere and for everyone.

Do you want to know more about Playground?

Playground is a comic and absurd proposal that rises up to 8 metres high, fusing Chinese pole, dance, theatre, acrobatics and humour. A tragicomedy full of surprises and unexpected twists and turns. This is Miguel Rubio’s challenge: his scenography comes to life thanks to those who decide to support it. Eight chairs form part of the structure, and the audience that occupies these seats becomes a fundamental pillar. Without them, the show would not stay afloat.

In an attempt to stay balanced on the Chinese pole, Miguel Rubio faces unpredictable situations. To overcome them, he needs the physical and emotional help of the audience, who become essential accomplices in the show. Playground is a solo show, warm and full of character, based on a collaborative anchoring system. Here, the connection between artist and audience is the key: without their support, the magic doesn’t happen.

Playground at the Hep Hep Hep Festival in Chasseneuil-sur-Bonnieure.

The last edition of ‘La Charente fait son Cirque’ was held in 2021, and has since been transformed into a larger event, a friendly and festive street arts festival in Chasseneuil-sur-Bonnieure: ‘Hep Hep Hep‘.
The street is what moves us, what drives us, what carries us, and that’s why we go even further to share our passion, to discover other people and other emotions.
Our work as street theatre artists cannot be thought, lived or experienced in an individualistic way. That’s why the main objective of this event is to make live theatre known to the local population, in particular through the ‘coup de cœur’ shows that we encounter on tour. It is also an opportunity to work with our partners, involving them in the organisation, creation and development of the event. This event should allow us to create social links.
We look forward to seeing you all on 13, 14 and 15 June at the next edition of the street arts festival: ‘Hep Hep Hep ’.

The Collectif Primavez will present its show Playground at the Hep Hep Hep on Saturday 14 June at 18h05 and Sunday 15 June at 18h02.
