About this show
A footballer, a violinist. Two artists from very different worlds meet on stage for an unexpected duet. Blending freestyle football with live music, °Up transforms the stage into a poetic playground. At its heart, °Up is the story of an encounter: a solo that became a duo thanks to the obvious connection on stage. Gabriel Majou plays the strings of his violin with as much playfulness as Paul Molina dribbles with his ball.
