Paprika Royal is a Franco-Swiss company founded by Coco and Riet in 2016. The linguistic and cultural diversity inspired the duo to create poetic and comedic moments in a universal language. Far from words, we emphasize the richness of gesture and emotion to connect with a cosmopolitan and intergenerational audience.

The company specializes in object theatre, slapstick, artistry, and clowning.

Performing in public spaces is essential for us, as it allows us to attract a diverse crowd and break down the barriers created by social status, even if only for the duration of a performance.

Clownerie, the heart of our work, is an invitation to slow down and see the world from a different angle, questioning the flaws of humanity. Revealing that, behind the seriousness of our lives, there is always room for the absurd, nonsense and for poetry. 

Laughter, which restrains our fear and channels our joy, offers us a moment of conviviality and allows us to experience a collective breath of delight.
