The Festival public had the opportunity of seeing them in 2010 with Öper Öpis and then in 2013 with Hans was Heiri. This year we have another performance by Zimmermann & de Perrot, one of the most interesting theatre-circus companies in the international performing scenario. Inside a swinging structure which constantly undermines equilibrium, the performance poses a series of interrogatives on identity and the small and significant tragedies of every day. This year the Festival will host the first solo appearance by Martin Zimmermann; a movement artist, and clown with an icy cold humour. For Hallo he has created a space like a shop window in which he plays with his tragicomic characters, challenging himself with the desire of becoming what he believes to be. The scenario, however, is animated and therefore it is up to the actor to fight against gravity and the numerous objects which, almost by magic, take on a life of their own.
