Theatre Nobodies was formed in 2002 in Sofia. Its members are young artists: puppeteers, directors, filmmakers, musicians. They mainly create puppet performances for adults in which, according to their credo, there are no words (they think words separate people); yet there is live music (music unites people); puppets are more important than the actors (’we are nobodies’); the detail is more important than the whole (the whole is just a lot of details); the show should be felt, not understood (freedom for the audience’s association); there is complete darkness, and the audience preferably sit on the floor.

The group has performed in numerous theatre and puppet theatre festivals in Europe and received several awards for their innovative puppetry.

‘1,67 m’ is about what happens in one’s life between birth and reaching the height of 1,67 m. The set is a huge loom, on which the two puppeteers weave ‘moving images’ from transparent materials as well as project photos, draw pictures, write and dance.
