Cirque Plume is a contemporary circus company founded in 1984 by Bernard Kudlak in the Franche-Comté region of France.
French newspaper Le Parisien has described Cirque Plume as "the oldest of the New Circuses... It is one of the rare troupes who seem to be able to reconcile both the children, numerous in the audience... and adults, uncomfortable with the traditional circus, but who are rather in search of a certain atmosphere."[1] According to Le Figaro, "The word circus here is what you see and what you get. The techniques of juggling, acrobatics or flying trapeze are totally respected. Their chief originality is the way in which they are all brought into the gigantic mixer."[2]
In 2018, Cirque Plume performed one last time in Paris, showing La dernière saison at the Grande Halle de La Villette from September 26 to December 30, marking its final Paris performances. The troupe planned to retire in late 2020 after farewell shows in its hometown of Besançon.[3]
On September 18, 2020, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the circus announced the cancellation of its final season, initially scheduled for October to December 2020.[4]
