PETA Theater Center
No. 5 Meynard Drive, New Manila
Quezon City, Philippines

The Embassy of France, the Alliance Française de Manille and Rustan’s, in partnership with the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA), present DUO, a performance by French juggler Jérôme Thomas and French accordionist Jean-François Baëz, on October 25, 8pm at the PETA Theater Center.

Two virtuosos come together for a one-of-a-kind performance filled with tenderness and humor, poetry and freedom. Jérôme Thomas is one of the pioneers of Modern Circus in France. For the past several years, he has been sharing the stage with his accomplice musician, Jean-François Baëz, both in France and abroad. An accordion and various juggling tools accompany the artists respectively as they delight audiences with an hour-long hymn of playful freedom, creation and interaction. Masters of improvisation and bestowed with indisputable precision, they make up this “juggled concert” to present a completely unique spectacle. This DUO brings together mime, clown and dance for a truly delightful production sure to amaze audiences of all ages.


DUO is on tour in Southeast Asia in October 2012. Filipino audiences have a chance to see them onstage in Manila on October 25 and in Cebu on October 26. DUO is part of FrancoPhil 2012, the French-Philippine cultural season in the Philippines.
