There are countless paths to explore,
which is why it's sometimes difficult to choose.
There are straight paths, winding paths, paths uphill and downhill.
There are some for walking alone and others
for which it's better to be accompanied.
There are familiar paths and, above all, unfamiliar ones.
Who knows which is the right path?
It's difficult to agree on this dilemma, especially when
it involves two opposing personalities.
They come from different places, they follow different paths.
Are these differences a problem?
On one thing they agree:
the one who follows their path will find their destiny.
With physical and acrobatic language, both comic and dramatic,
with encounters and misunderstandings, lifts and falls,
they will do the impossible to reach their destination.
Liam discovered his passion for circus during a long trip to Cambodia at the age of fifteen. Born in Galway but currently based in France, Liam is a circus artist specializing in dynamic partner and group acrobatics. Liam is driven by his sense of adventure, his desire for new experiences and connecting with people.
Lisandro Gallo wasborn in Argentina in 1994. At 15, he discovered the circus, built his first juggling props, and began to play, learn, and eventually work. After high school, he enrolled at the Municipal School of Urban Arts in Rosario, where he completed two years of training in "Street Theater" followed by two years in "Complete Circu". After this experience, he decided to specialize as an acrobat and aerialist.It was there that he decided to study at the Regional Center of Circus Arts in Lomme to complete his training process as a circus artist.
Liam and Lisandro met at the circus school CRAC in the north of France in 2018. They created their show a Contresens in 2023 at the Massenet theatre in Lille.They both work professionally as circus artists, performing with various projects in France and internationally.
“A Contresens” is supported to be in Ireland thanks to Alliance Française de Cork.
