Patru Poli

Acrobatic monkeys, or even incredible alpinists who left behind the via ferrata, this group of artists embarks with shows that know no equal : a ceiling doesn’t exist for them, because the spectacular will not be restricted by heights. And neither will their common sense. We have the pleasure of welcoming them for both the opening and closure of BIFFF, and we don’t take any responsibilities for a broken neck. www.patrupoli.be

Dolle Pret

Best friends of Patru Poli, these magicians are the most experienced mime players who will be present at the BIFFF on Monday 12th and Thursday 15th of April 2010, with their bestiarium (short haired and with stings). One small hint : do not try to play 1 2 3 piano with them, because you will lose. www.dollepret.be

Magic Land Théâtre

For thirty years the group of Patrick Chaboud practically lives on humor alone. Conquering all areas and all techniques of improvisation, the brigade of the Gag nowadays houses under the name of Magic Land Theatre over fifty artists of various disciplines (comedians, musicians, dancers, magicians, singers, stilt walkers, stunt performers, scenographers, …) ready to brighten up the festival visitors on Friday April 9th, 2010. www.magicland-theatre.com

Freeeks Factory

Founded in 2002, the Freeeks Factory is a collective of artists from different disciplines and backgrounds, with the purpose to create artistic and socio-cultural projects. Through the creation of new species and their insertion on the surface of the earth, the Freeks Factory explores the human condition, and its connection to others and the earth. To be able to do this, the Freeks Factory has established a creative studio where the most eccentric creatures are contrived. For the third time present at the BIFFF, the Freeks Factory will take you on a journey through their marvellous universe on Saturday April 11th and Friday April 16th 2010. So don’t hesitate to leave your conformism at the cloak room ! www.freeeks-factory.be

La Compagnie DesBoulesauNez

The first, Enzo Fati. Despite his tousled posture, he isn’t less accurate, neat or happy. With his eternal youthfulness, he always dreamt of playing Hamlet. The other, Christian Fanton. Stern, rebellious, sensitive and honest. As a cliniclown and a natural born clown, he has a devoted admiration and eternal respect for the « red nose ». Both graduated at the International Theatre School in Lassaad and have one language in common, that of the gesture. The commedia dell’arte will knock on the doors of the festival on Sunday, April 18th, 2010. www.desboulesauxnez.be
