Description
Mummenschanz is back! For more than thirty
years the company has created an original and captivating
universe of whimsy, wonder, and ingenuity that delights both
young and old. Mummenschanz who revolutionized mime art with
a new vocabulary of body language, are back with a new show
that keeps the best and most significant acts of previous
shows.
They wear fake heads that are blown up, drawn from wire or
luminous strands, cut from cloth or cardboard, poylester or
foam. Whether the performers of Mummenschanz wear these creations
of manouver them, a fantastic world appears that is nonetheless
human and extraordinarily poetic.
