ADN,
Vertical Odyssey
Aerial Night Show | Big format
Unlimited audience | 50-minute duration | 25-person team
This electro-opera epic tells the story of a group of humans on an initiatory journey, where collective challenges and individual trials unfold at the heart of their dizzying construction.
The largest structure
ever imagined by
Transe Express
At the heart of a towering, luminous structure, characters confront trials that test their strength, their bonds, and their will. As they rise, they build, unbuild, collaborate, break free—shaping their environment as much as they are shaped by it.
At the heart of a sleek, 44-meter-tall luminous sculpture, aerial climbing, dance, and circus skills merge to showcase the power of the collective in a vertiginous vertical choreography.
This transcendent experience gives meaning to unity, solidarity, and cooperation.
