Caught in the web and under the spell of Tarantula, the spider lady, flying
acrobats crisscross high above the stage with meticulous timing as they are
launched off platforms and bars, creating an effect of visual symmetry and tight
choreography.
When Tarantula appears in the middle of her enormous web, clowns
emerge from cocoons to invade it. Acrobats launch themselves off
platforms in acrobatic flight formations and are then caught by the
skillful hands of the porters. This unique number with a classical
aesthetic involves 12 performers in three aligned corridors, allowing
simultaneous criss-crossing flights to create an incredible visual
effect.
