Once Upon a Time...
A door opened and two worlds collided.
Dreams clashed with reality.
The mundane mixed with the marvelous.
It was no longer possible to tell where one
world began and the other ended.
This new place was called La Nouba.

La Nouba is an unforgettable journey through this universe - at once
threatening and exhilarating, frightening and familiar. La Nouba is the story
of all stories, the site of all mysteries, where dreams and nightmares sleep
side by side. La Nouba is memory, individual and universal. It beckons to
us, challenges us to uncover passions we thought we'd lost long ago. Here,
anything is possible.
La Nouba contains two types of families or groups and throughout the ride
the magic and fantasy of the colorful Cirques (circus people) clash with the
monochromatic world of the Urbains (urbanites). But as in fables, it is not
so much this contrast as the interplay between these two groups which
sparks our curiosity and feeds our imagination.
From this encounter is born fear and ecstasy. From this encounter is born
La Nouba.
