Zimmermann and de Perrot productions are based on precise observation, humoristic repetition, the artistic distortion and transformation of everyday interactions, thus giving lots of scope to the little things in life. Using bodies, objects and music, Zimmermann and de Perrot create amusing and unconventional plays with changing scenography. Human beings, with all their fragilities and contradictions, are at the centre of their work. Their characters are driven to make the impossible possible. They are very physical and in full possession of the wonderful art and craft of performance. Their wordless theatre is full of absurd humour and a profound love of detail whereby objects are living beings, people are things and the subject is not always clear.
Over the years, Zimmermann and de Perrot have produced their magical world-renowned festivals and theatres in Europe and all over the world. The two artists act and create at a very intense pace.
