Paris…I mean PIFA Street Fair

But what is sure to steal the spotlight is a performance by La Compagnie Transe Express who will perform 100 feet above Broad Street at 7:30pm.

Founded in 1982, Transe Express create magical and imaginative large-scale shows in unconventional spaces. Their productions are unique adventures that transform cities and invite the public to escape their everyday reality.

The team is made up of 100 actors, acrobats, bell ringers, dancers, percussionists, singers, string quartets, welders, technicians, forgers and many others; a motley crew that realizes their ephemeral creations and repertoire shows, be they close-act theatre, aerial or roving spectacles.
