Les Chevaliers

In "The Knights", we summon a universe that makes young and old dream: that of the Middle Ages, with its heroes, its legends and its marvelous creatures. Through an initiatory quest, the knights live funny and tragicomic adventures. They will discover the fragility of their lives, will try to survive on the battlefield, will discover a pagan paradise, but will not escape final judgment, in the mouth of hell ... "

Centre Presse

“The music, announcements and decor are inspired by medieval illuminations: a book whose pages you turn in relief without realizing it. From the very first glance, the two companions draw us into their world of poetry, childish fears, dreams and warlike fury, punctuated by onomatopoeia and hilarious burlesque situations. This show is a real therapy for bad moods, boredom and stress. To be enjoyed without moderation.”

Ouest France

“From traditional clowns in Ha Ha Ha, to music-hall stars in Slips Inside, to clownish knights of the Middle Ages, they return this time, telling a story of existential quest in a mystical world populated by dragons and marvelous creatures.”

France Bleu

“This clown duo's quest for initiation recounts the comical and tragicomic adventures of two knights-troubadours. They tackle the fragility of their lives, try to survive on the battlefield and discover a pagan paradise, but can't escape the Last Judgment... Chases, fencing and acrobatics, with a pinch of Monty Python-style humour! A delight for young and old alike!”
