LEO

What makes this show so unique is its simplicity. A man, a cap, a suitcase, a piece of chalk. Sensational is only the how of this performance. Tobias Wegner tells the story of a character in a room where the laws of gravity do not apply, but which everyone believes they have dreamed of before. 
Leo floats on the wall, makes ludicrous pirouettes, throws a hat into the air that plopps back at him as if his body were the center of gravity of the universe. A video projection enables these physical quantum leaps. With the help of a live projection, the audience always sees two stage rooms at the same time, whereby the reflection is additionally rotated by 90 degrees. The natural perception is thereby completely undermined. 
Does Leo really walk horizontally or does he just give this impression through leg movements and is actually clinging to the wall? The wordless play with the laws of gravity is physical theatre at a high level. Tobias Wegner is, of course, a graduate of the renowned École Supérieure des Arts du Cirque (É.S.A.C.) in Brussels. 
The artistic direction of this breathtaking performance has been taken over by none other than the experimental Franco-Canadian actor, dramaturge and star director Daniel Brière. After LEO has already inspired the whole world, it's finally on tour in Germany.
