Melissa was joined by Sean McKeown to talk about REESCH, an acrobatic performance on the programme of the Nuit de la Culture 2022, as part of Esch2022, European Capital of Culture.

RTL Today Radio's Melissa Dalton spoke with actor, writer, director and Cirque du Soleil Worldwide alumni Sean McKeown about REESCH on The Home Stretch.

McKeown, who boasts an incredible CV as one of the main artistic directors of Cirque de Soleil since 2007, has envisioned shows like "The Beatles. LOVE," "DRALION" and "MESSI10." On top of his work with the Cirque, Sean has directed performances and events spanning across 40 countries and almost 200 cities...and now he's coming to Luxembourg.

As part of Nuit de la Culture 2022, McKeown's exciting new project REESCH "represents a fascinating journey into Esch, into its history and culture, inspired by the traditions and strengths of the Region, as an example of evolution, innovation, perseverance and fortitude."

REESCH truly embodies the theme by comprising a team of local art students, dancers and of course volunteers. When speaking of the team and the involvement of local talent, Sean said "we're loving working with the community."

REESCH will take to the stage for two nights only (2 and 3 September), so make sure to listen to the complete interview between Sean and Melissa here or via the player below for all of the details!
