Mummenschanz Shows Off Unique Brand Of Visual Theater

Mummenschanz are playing a special three-week holiday engagement in New York City up to January 8 at The Skirball Center for the Performing Arts, located in Greenwich Village. They stopped by the studio to give us a taste of their show with their Toilet Paper Performance and Mr. and Mrs. Masks trick.
For nearly four decades, Mummenschanz has captivated audiences worldwide with its groundbreaking and transformative visual theater. The troupe creates a playful and uniquely memorable experience through an inventive use of forms, shadow and light, and inventive manipulation of sculptural, expressive masks.
In the surreal, comic, wordless universe of Mummenschanz, the ordinary becomes extraordinary when common materials and everyday objects--such as wires, tubes, boxes, and even toilet paper--all spring to life as fantastical characters. Abstract shapes and forms also interact in surprising ways to reveal some timeless truths about human connections and relationships. The result is a wonder-filled, visually stunning spectacle and family entertainment that sparks the imagination and transcends cultural barriers.
