Media:

2017   

- Allgäu-Kultur, Markus Röck, press review, Füssen, Germany:

"In the air: Maxime Yelle doesn't adhere to the laws of physics while on the trapeze. Maxime doesn't only show elegance on it, but also humor."

​

2015   

- Britishtheatre.com, Stephen Collins, London, U.K.:

"There is excellent work too from Maxime Yelle who after a tenuous start as a warm-up act as juggler/acrobat 
(in retrospect, this uncertain beginning set the mood perfectly for what was to follow) is an active and committed ensemble member, as well as playing Bruno, the impresario who will be so important to Piaf’s success. Both actors brim with commitment and energy, whatever they are doing."
 

2013 

- Kölner Stadtanzeiger, press review, Cologne, Germany:

" Maxime Yelle, native of Canada, literally melts into the air while on his ropes hanging from the ceiling, almost as if he were part of a thread game guided by invisible fingers. "

 

2010    

- Spectacle magazine, press review: 
"Finally a young man, Maxime Yelle, brought some variety to the aerial lineup, first of all by being male and secondly by working on a double cloudswing, the double level of loops providing opportunity for some novelty as he moved between them in a series of twists and saltos. He was also the first of the performers to actually smile, which made him even more engaging."
