This festival celebrates the power of mime and performance in all their forms: physical, associative, poetic, and engaged. With an accessible and surprising program, ZÉRO invites a broad and curious audience to come and see, feel, and experience.

This festival demonstrates how the body tells stories, how performance can make us feel something that is difficult to explain. From small, intimate works to bold theatrical gestures, from deeply personal to politically or socially charged: ZÉRO shows how rich and relevant mime and performance can be.

ZÉRO Festival is an initiative of Schweigman&, Golden Palace, and Jakop Ahlbom Company, in collaboration with Stadsschouwburg Utrecht, Theater Kikker, and Theater Utrecht. Students from the Master in Scenography (HKU) and the Mime Program (AHK) also contribute to the program's content.
