You're Going To Love Mummenschanz

It's their 40th Anniversary Tour and Mummenschanz has only one Canadian date... where, you ask, might they be headed?  You guessed it - to the Rose Theatre Brampton. The Rose is thrilled to present the brilliant Swiss physical theatre troupe on January 22, 2013.  Mummenschanz undoubtedly paved the way for Blue Man Group and other physical theatre companies that have become so popular for their ability to transcend cultural and language barriers with entertainment that is delightful for all ages, funny and oh so human.

If you were watching the Muppets back in the 70s, you will remember Mummenschanz from their stint on the show in 76.  As I was watching it for the first time a few days ago, I discovered the actors are wonderfully engaging and its hard to stop watching!  I'll warn you now, top up your coffee before you click -  there are 40 years worth of incredible videos to surprise and entertain you.  One thing that amazes me is the way Mummenschanz can capture your attention so completely without saying a word.  Speaking of which, don't take my word, check it out for yourself here: http://youtu.be/3eazq_8jCOg
