He is looking for the perfect, neat organization; she is longing for the lightness of altitude. In order to reach their goals, both need the help of the other. Conflicts are foreordained with this odd couple. Maliciously, tactically and lovingly, each of them meddles with the reality of the other. They wrangle, irritate and love. The resulting conflicts will be solved creatively and spectacularly. Jonas and Esther Slanzi have created a genre-crossing performance that amazes the audience with a combination of airiness, acrobatics, tricks and theatre.
Démodés
Three clowns wander, without a job and without shelter, through a world that no longer has a place for them. Being clowns, they manage to give even this bleak atmosphere a special humour. Our three anti-heroes show that clowns can still make us laugh today. With their tragi-comedy about the end of a time in which a clown could be sure of provoking the benign laughter of society, Leandre Ribera and the La Tal company commemorate the red noses and simultaneously revive them in a completely new form.

Go !
The (good) philosophy of the tatami. Two men are eyeing up, fighting each other and showing off in this athletic and artistic performance. Nobody gets hurt though. These fighting dancers respect each other and their warrior rituals reconnect with fundamental instincts such as openness and emancipation. Go ! combines humor, sensuality and explosiveness and articulates a common thread between dance and martial arts: the perfection and beauty of movement.

Pas comme les autres ? Les nombreux tics et l’étrange élocution de Petite lui valent les moqueries de ses camarades alors que Grand, son frère, est un enfant sans problème.

Wilhelm B
Sorry, there’s no English version of this text.
Ein ruhiges Leben im Dorf, mehr wollen der verträumte Barde Balduin und sein Nachbar Onkel Fritz nicht. Wäre da nur nicht Fipps, der durchtriebene Affe. Auf Französisch parlierend stolziert das stattliche Männchen durch die Dorfgemeinschaft. Als Fipps dann auch noch Onkel Fritz und Balduin austrickst, um an eine halbe Banane zu kommen, reicht es den beiden. Gemeinsam versuchen sie dem schlauen Affen eine Falle zu stellen. Mit viel Witz erweckt Le Grand Boube die Figuren von Wilhelm Busch wieder zum Leben und setzt dem findigen Affen Fipps ein spritzig-humorvolles Denkmal.
Concerto pour deux clowns
Two diametrically opposed clowns – an athletic strongman and a violin-playing female contortionist – driven by the same desire to play a musically and physically demanding music score, have to find their common ground in order to perform this concerto. The result is as hilarious as it is touching. The duo won the people’s choice award at the Off Festival in Avignon in 2013 and has continued to amaze the audiences since then.
In collaboration with Festival Clowns in Progress Kulturfabrik
