Story of Bichocura

Story of Bichocura

A circus act by and with Charlotte Maillard

It is the story of the life path of the eccentric character Bichocura* ; through the dictates, the advice, the worries of our mothers. How this character evolves and explores its construction and empowerment with lightness, fragility, and solidity in all its complexity. 

Also influenced by other forms such as theater, dance, music, visual arts, and more, Charlotte tries to take you into her dreamlike world, deep and light. She creates complex pieces with different layers of reading and often in response to an existentialist question.  

Charlotte Maillard

Since her childhood, Charlotte Maillard displays, plays, develops her positions called 'strange, funny, unnatural, inappropriate' but for her comfortable, challenging, fun.

It is first at the University of Toulouse (bachelor degree in Communication and performing arts), then at the circus school of Barcelona, Rogelio Rivel that she will continue to develop and push this character, Bichocura, to his first steps on stage.

Finally, it is at Stockholm University of the arts (SKH) that they will reunite and finish their program together.

*Bichocura : 
Spanish
Bicho = bug 
Locura -> cura = crazy
