Already more than thirty years of existence… The Réno Circus was indeed born in 1974, when a few friends decide to create their own circus. Most of them worked in other circuses prior. The circus' little 600 seats big top, whose stands and dressing-rooms are really close from the track, offers a never-been-witnessed-elsewhere contact between the artists and the audience.
Some of Réno's biggest forces are the circus training courses, where the public can learn the ring's arts. Many of them can then realize their talent. For around 15 years now, more than 20.000 children have been initiated to trapeze, acrobatics, the wire and the clown skills thanks to renowned teachers : the circus' artists. When the internship is over, children can show their skills to the public since they perform a show starring their teachers too. Réno also produced a very interesting small book. Anyone can find a circus historic, an index of the different shows, a dictionary of every word related to circus and finally, a drawing of a big top including every an explanation of every part of it and its respective role. Starring
Bruno Arlès : A juggler who can throw plates, torches, balls, rings and hammers, but he currently prefers to give the public creeps with his breathtaking balance sword show.Gipsy Regazzoni : Like her mother used to, she's really enjoying to perform on the very top of the big top on her trapeze. Her performance has been rewarded by a "Golden K" at the Monaco Circus festival.Christo : A Belgium native, that's in this area that he started to perform in street shows and that's also where he was first recognized when his automation show was rewarded at the Tournai rookie festival. He now performs this show in Réno's big top.Mick Noakes : He starred in the Juggling Institute show and now works for the Réno troupe where he performs a facetious plates and boomerangs show.Lili Clennel : Belongs to a family with a six-generation circus tradition. Her father was a tightrope walker. She performs an antipodist show where charm and grace are definitely present.
Don't forget Gérard Fardet and Joël Rousselle in charge of the music, Christian, Pascal, Guillaume and Olivier in charge of the technique and Michèle Regazzoni who spends her time in the wings in order to supervise everything, from the show in itself to the youngsters training courses.

But at Réno, no one wanted to do what the others used to. Instead of traveling from town to town as any circus does, the Réno Circus decide to spend less time on the road to rather encourage the teaching process. Circus classes and school shows have then been set up.
Right now, the circus owns two big tops, in order to make the children discover the ring's jobs and to perform shows entertaining a young and quite older audience.
