Traces is a Segerstrom event perfect for those who want to experience the culture of live theater without the gratuitous boredom. Featuring the acrobatic stage antics of French Canadian company Le 7 Doigts de la Main, this show boasts a “new brand of circus.” Six talented dudes and one intrepid lady bring to bear a dizzying blend of high flying razzle dazzle in the grand tradition of free-style running combined with dance and an urban aesthetic. Youtube footage shows a group of physically ripped artistes leaping like caracals from poles, through hoops and possibly off one another's bodies. Think Cirque du Soleil meets Parkour.
