Company/troupe presentation (history, artistic identity, number of members, values)
A unique company with frenetic rhythms
Since 2010, the Atypic Groove company has brought together artists with complementary and highly expressive styles.
We are a passionate troupe of musicians, dancers, stilt walkers and jugglers, united by a common desire: to make public spaces vibrate to the rhythm of our percussion, our moving bodies and our creativity.
Based in Crest, in the Drôme region, we travel throughout France all year round to offer festive, visual, and immersive street performances. We work with flexible teams, composed of 5 to 15 artists depending on the format, always prioritizing close interaction with the audience and a warm, human connection.
Shows offered (type, name, style, theme)
Colorful and energetic shows
Atypic Groove designs and produces its own shows, all driven by the same desire to convey joy, movement and a unique perspective.
Among our creations, The Power Flower brings a floral and luminous touch, Cosmic Show takes you into a rhythmic intergalactic atmosphere, Ultra Violet Percussions colors your nights with its light shows and electrifying aesthetics, while Coquillages et Crustacés takes you into a maritime samba with summer scents.
Our artistic universe is intentionally abundant, colorful, poetic and resolutely festive.
Artistic disciplines used
(juggling, dance, theatre, stilts, fire, music…)
A blend of disciplines for total stage impact. Our creations draw on a rich combination of artistic disciplines.
Percussion, dance, stilts, juggling, light pyrotechnics, ambulatory staging… each show is conceived as a living tableau, where bodies, sounds and costumes interact with the public space.
We conceive our interventions as sensory experiences, where the raw energy of percussion meets the elegance of movement and visual wonder.
Events and contexts of intervention (festivals, carnivals, Christmas markets, private or public events…)
A strong presence at all festive events. We operate throughout the year in a wide variety of settings: festivals, carnivals, Christmas markets, ski resort entertainment, cultural events, village festivals, and even bespoke private events.
Our shows are equally suited to fixed stages and moving spaces, outdoors as well as indoors.
Among the many cities that have welcomed us are Paris, Lyon, Valence, Marseille, Avignon, Chambéry, Oyonnax, Saint-Chamond, and the resorts of Chamonix, Courchevel, Méribel and Les Orres.
Target audience types (children, general public, businesses, schools…)
An intergenerational audience is at the heart of our performances. Our shows are aimed at a wide range of audiences.
Whether for amazed children, curious families or adults in search of celebration and surprise, we design interventions for all audiences, intergenerational and warm.
We also adapt to school, community or professional contexts according to the requests.
Adaptability / customization of shows
(custom-made creations, customizable themes…)
Tailor-made shows that can be adapted to your needs. Every event is unique, which is why we offer adaptable shows, in terms of the number of artists, the theme, the format, and the duration.
Our creations can be tailored to your colors, the identity of your event, or your logistical needs. We listen carefully to each request to offer a service that reflects your unique style.
Artistic values
(originality, quality, creativity, poetry, emotions…)
Creativity, gentle madness, and festive poetry as trademarks
At Atypic Groove, originality isn't a pose: it's our very essence. We believe in the power of celebration, in the emotion that arises in the moment, in the magic of details that amaze.
Our shows do not seek demonstration but shared vibration, through a consistently refined aesthetic and a communicative energy.
Geographic area of intervention
A local presence in the Drôme region, a national reach
Based in Crest, we operate throughout France, from North to South, from large cities to villages, including the snowy heights of the Alps.
We travel easily and love exploring new territories, always with the same pleasure of meeting and sharing art.
