​​​​​Accompany ME is a circus company formed by Elena Damasio and Monika Neverauskaite.

It is a project of international influence: the performers originate from Italy and Lithuania, both educated and trained in the Netherlands and both living and working in Toulouse, France.

Through their work, the two female authors aim to offer their audience a moment of lightness in counterbalance with the more serious themes which they handle - all of this strictly in the language that circus can offer.

The company pursues the theme of gender equality as it is created and performed by two women, in an equal and non-hierarchical relationship.​

ABOUT THE SHOW​

 

“À Mesure - Handle with care” evokes the strengths and fragilities of a two-person relationship. Through the language of the Cyr wheel, two women offer a look at their intimate space, their daily life, by arming themselves with patience and playing with the passing of time. There is a wheel, there is a kitchen, there are eggs. And there are them, sensitive, true, committed. At the risk of love, they bring a comforting story to the stage, in search of a rhythm that leads them to each other.
