Playground in the Festival du Vivre Ensemble 2025 in Meythet
The Festival Citoyen du Vivre Ensemble is back for its second edition, all about joy and sharing! This year, the theme is ‘Let’s live happily together’, and everyone is invited to enjoy two warm and festive days on 20 and 21 June, in the Jean Chamey square in Meythet, just in front of the town hall.
Organised free of charge in the open air, this event is the result of a real collective effort between the residents of Meythet and Le Cairn. For several months, they have been working together to build a festival in their image: friendly, inclusive and unforgettable.
The Collectif Primavez will be performing his show Playground at the Festival Citoyen du Vivre Ensemble 2025 on 20 June at 17h00

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.
