Eins Zwei Drei

Eins Zwei Drei

Eins Zwei Drei

Packed with visual collisions, Zimmermann’s wordless theatre has  circus, dance and visual-arts roots. Here, with live piano  accompaniment, a tasteful museum space catalyses, in tragi-comic manner,  the violence and complexity of human passions… As the three characters  (at once actors, dancers and circus performers) come up against the  institution’s walls and their own limits, and things go irresistibly  askew, what chance survival? Will the seeds of conflict finally cause  them to snap, or rewrite the rules?

Plasson, Fabien

Born in 1977, Fabien Plasson is a video director specialized in the field of performing arts (dance , music, etc).

During his studies at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Lyon (joined in 1995) Fabien discovered video art. He was trained by various video artists (Joel Bartoloméo Pascal Nottoli , Eric Duyckaerts , etc).
He first experimented with the creation of installations and cinematic objects.

From 2001 to 2011, he was in charge of Ginger & Fred video Bar’s programming at La Maison de la Danse in Lyon. He discovered the choreographic field and the importance of this medium in the dissemination, mediation and pedagogical approach to dance alongside Charles Picq, who was a brilliant video director and the director of the video department at that time.

Today, Fabien Plasson is the video director at La Maison de la Danse and in charge of the video section of Numeridanse.tv, an online international  video library, and continues his creative activities, making videos of concerts, performances and also creating video sets for live performances.
