car. It was a way for them to plunge into the heart of the characters' intimacy. Style The company has a distinct style. In a portrait for Contemporary Arts from Flanders, theatre scientist Lieve Dierckx describes it as: "[...]the organic interweaving between the daily life of the performers and their artistic work, a zoom in on fears and fantasies in relational constellations that are as familiar as they are intimate in hyper-realistic stage sets." In addition, "Peeping Tom does not narrate specific stories that have a clear beginning, development and end, in their works; they create fragmentary and irrational worlds like one can experience in dreams." To create their work, Peeping Tom also use cinematographic techniques, including sound, lights and the zoom from the camera.

It symbolises a dream or a nightmare. The second part was the live performance, with the three characters - Carrizo, Chartier and Versnel - in a beautifully tended garden. The show premiered on 13 June 2002 in Ghent (Belgium). Le Salon (2004) Le Salon was created in 2004 by Carrizo, Chartier and Versnel, with Mezzo-Soprano Eurudike De Beul and dancer Samuel Lefeuvre joining the cast. The show meant the international break for the Belgian company. Le Salon has been described as showing the mental, physical and financial decay of what was once a wealthy family. A unique part of the show was Carrizo and Chartier's young child, Uma Chartier. The three developed a kissing dance, which since has becoming internationally
