This autumn, Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche raises the curtain on Babel, the new show by hip-hop icon Mourad Merzouki. From September 4 to December 31, 2025, every Thursday, Friday and Saturday evening when the department store closes, ten circus artists and dancers will perform a spellbinding choreographic creation.

Mourad Merzouki, choreographer and figurehead of the contemporary hip-hop movement, is known for his creations combining dance, circus, martial arts, visual arts and music. With his company Käfig, founded in 1996, he has produced a string of hit shows (Pixel, Vertikal, Folia, Zéphyr, Phénix, Beauséjour), with a total audience of over two million. After electrifying the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Merzouki will transform Le Bon Marché into a high-flying stage.
