Rêves de Cirque: The Magic of Traditional Circus in Laval

Every autumn, the Cirque-Théâtre Classico pitches its big top in Laval, at the Hippodrome de Bellevue-la-Forêt site, to present its show Rêves de Cirque. This French circus company perpetuates the tradition of classic circus while infusing it with a theatrical and poetic dimension that appeals to audiences of all ages.

A Magical Show for the Whole Family

The show "Imaginarium" takes spectators on a dreamlike journey. The story follows a little girl searching for her favorite toys in an imaginary world populated by extraordinary characters:

• Jugglers with breathtaking feats of dexterity and grace.
• Burlesque and touching clowns who make young and old laugh.
• Acrobats and trapeze artists defying the laws of gravity in spectacular aerial acts.
• Horse riders perpetuating the traditional equestrian art of the circus.
• Jumbo, the company's emblematic automaton elephant, a true technical and artistic feat.

A National Tour with a Stop in Laval

The Cirque-Théâtre Classico travels across France with its big top, presenting its show in many cities. The Laval stop has become an unmissable event for families in the Mayenne region, who joyfully return each year to experience the magic of circus under the big top.
