Credits Tour Press

In the play Eins Zwei Drei Martin Zimmermann stages a trio against the backdrop of an ultra modern museum. The work is dedicated to the central question of how a clown can be understood and staged in contemporary theatre today. Today’s society is broken down into three figures: the white clown, August and the crazy third “contre-pitre”. The confused relationship of the vain, educated and know-it-all White Clown, the warm-hearted August and the punk “contre-pitre” reflects the whole complexity, poetry and violence of today’s relationships and power struggles. The museum as a venue symbolizes the mirror of society. It is a neutral place, with its own system of values. Everyone knows how to behave and obeys the rules. But “contre-pitre” confuses everything. It stands for freedom, anarchy and creativity. In Eins Zwei Drei the three virtuoso dancers and actors Tarek Halaby, Dimitri Jourde and Romeau Runa merge with the piano sounds of the pianist Colin Vallon and the spectacular stage design to a total work of art.
