Synopsis |
Martin Zimmermann cooks Hallo to perfection.'
Le Monde, France
'The unbelievable talent of Martin Zimmermann consists mainly of his ability to simultaneously invent the time and space in which his character constantly wanders.'
Lib廨ation, France
'This piece is alive, a living sculpture. Hallo allows us to see things differently and aims to move us.'
Der Landbote, Switzerland
A one-man creative blend of mime, dance and circus
Searching for self within animate showcase
An attempt to fling the absurdities of Martin Zimmermann's inner life inside out and get a grip on the human fragility and contradictions
Hallo is a solo performance by Martin Zimmermann with elements of mime, dance, circus and tragicomedy. It is an attempt to fling the absurdities of his inner life inside out and get a grip on his bizarre thought processes. For the setting of Hallo, he has chosen a frame structure, turning it into a shop-window-type space to showcase a tragicomic figure driven by the desire to become what he appears to be. The staid and seemingly static framework turns out to be much more dynamic and fragile than one thought. The performer tries to adapt himself to the ever more out-of-control world of appearances. Objects come alive and fly around his head, magic overflows the space, obliterating the border between fiction and reality. |
