You are walking through the city. Unaware. Then you see it: people lifting off the ground. No stage, no curtain—just a moment unfolding in the middle of the street. 'Real levitation' is a performance that takes you by surprise, enchants you, and lifts you up—in broad daylight.

We all know that flutters in our stomach when we are up high. That strange mix of warning and attraction. In 'Real levitation', French circus company L’immédiat takes it one step further: what if we do not fall, but rise? A poetic journey into weightlessness, into letting go, into experiencing the impossible.

The performers control their bodies with breathtaking precision—no wires, no tricks. Just skill. Their physical mastery evokes something deeply human: the sensation of falling and flying at the same time, of disorientation and wonder.

About the artists
Led by Camille Boitel and Sève Bernard, L’immédiat has been exploring the space between circus, performance, and installation since 2004. Their work fuses chaos and craftsmanship, repeatedly revealing how fragile—and how powerful—humans can be.
