A marvellous cast: the large and the small, the weak and the strong, all are dancers and expert circus performers. Totally fresh stage design: the sloping stage is equipped with trapdoors and tricks, forever tilting and constantly altering its foundations and balance. What’s more, composer and DJ Dimitri de Perrot plays his music live, blending into the mix. Is it dance, theatre or musical? What does it matter, when ‘Öper Öpis’ is all these things at once. Above all, it is the magnificent and knowing madness of two talented handymen, Martin Zimmermann and Dimitri de Perrot, who create an unexpected and extravagant world. It is a delight, packed with ludicrous ideas, dreamlike poetry and acute intelligence, where improbable characters struggle and defy the laws of the theatre. One of the major revelations of the season.
