Compagnie des Quidams, an internationally renowned spectacle performance group based in France, will come to Japan with its new show entitled "FierS à Cheval" (Proud Horse) to perform at Roppongi Art Night. Performers wearing strange white costumes appear and transform into beautiful glowing horses with a symphony evoking an image of space and the sound of horses neighing. The ringmaster gives power to the horses, dances and playfully moves closer and farther away from the audience. The glowing white horses symbolizing peace, innocence and spirit will cross paths in a dreamlike performance that will appear at Roppongi Hills, The National Art Center, Tokyo and Tokyo Midtown.
* A company lauded for its performance of "Herbet's Dream" at Roppongi Art Night 2010 will return to Japan.
