Cia. Express is a contemporary circus company founded in 2023 by the Mexican Estefania Flores and the Swiss Jannick Lüthi. Based in Sant Pol de Mar (Catalonia), it was created with the desire to explore new forms of scenic expression and bring contemporary circus closer to diverse audiences.
His work combines humor, acrobatics and a strong connection with the audience. His first show, INKOGNITO, integrates acrobatics, clowning, hair suspension, juggling and physical theater, defining a fresh, visual and absurd language.
Since its creation, the company has presented its work at festivals such as Circada (Seville), Trapezi (Reus), FIC (Tenerife), La Fira de Circ (La Bisbal d'Empordà) and La Mercè (Barcelona), in addition to performing in Portugal, Germany and Switzerland.
Cia. Express continues to create proposals that merge technique, artistic sensitivity and a comedic perspective, consolidating itself as an emerging voice within contemporary European circus.

"Art has accompanied me for many years, with music being my main specialty and my first contact with live presentation to an audience. Upon my arrival in Catalonia in 2016, I became fascinated by the circus and its interdisciplinary mixtures, which was my driving force for pursuing professional training in circus arts and obtaining a broader knowledge of performing arts to make it a profession."

"Movement has fascinated me for a long time and has been a constant presence in my life, expressed in many different ways. Discovering circus allowed me to professionalize this passion and to integrate other interests such as music, dance and theatre.
What draws me to circus is its openness, its non-competitive nature and its transdisciplinary approach—qualities I haven’t found in any other art form. I’m motivated to share with others the knowledge and skills I’ve developed in this field, both as an artist and as an educator."
