Katja Grahl in a visual theatre performance

Mime and visual theatre:
stories that reach you without words

Contemporary stage art from Berlin.
Physical theatre as a mirror of human existence.
Poetic. Powerful. Understood anywhere.

“As a mime artist, I want to tell stories about life. About mine and yours, about the life we long for and the one we fear. I speak of laughter and tears, hope and uncertainty, and the values of being human.”

Stories that never need to be explained.

Are you looking for a piece that reaches your audience on a deeper level and stands clearly apart from conventional show formats? I combine the precise technique of Mime Corporel with the aesthetics of contemporary visual theatre.

My work tells whole stories: sometimes light and funny, sometimes poetic and reflective, always played at full intensity.

For theatres, festivals and cultural events alike, the language of silence carries across borders. Clear, moving and unmistakable.

Three pillars of my work.

Artistic performance, stage appearances and teaching, brought together in one practice.

Dear Katja, we have worked together for many years, and there is always something new to discover with you.

Good art holds lightness and depth at once.

Theatre is always entertainment, and good entertainment is always theatre.

That is where I work: between humour and poetry, between lightness and depth, so that an evening stays with people.
