The Evening of the Abyss begins with the evocation of the power of Eole. The wind blows with might. They are five to fight against this hurricane that drowns them beneath a white sea and takes them at last in the midst a intermediate world, inter cut by powerful musics. Nothing is where it should be anymore, not even gravity. And so everything gets mixed up, things escape, impose themselves and their law, change shapes, end the humans fly away… To tell this story, which is without story, James, uses all the artistic forms, from dance to acrobatics, not forgetting singing, contortionists, magic and humour. It is a journey presented to us by James Thierrée about which he proposes to « receive the show in all innocence, you won’t bore your mind…if luckily you lost it ! ».
