World-Renowned Mummenschanz Brings Playful Theatre to Van Wezel Performing Arts Center 11/03

Legendary Swiss performance troupe Mummenschanz is coming to the Van Wezel Performing Arts Center in Sarasota, FL for a performance at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, November 3rd. The performance is part of the troupe's first U.S. tour since 2003. Tickets are $35-55 and the theatre is located at 777 N. Tamiami Trail. These exclusive, Alden Theatre performances will be Mummenschanz's only performance in the Florida region during this tour.

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.

Tickets are on sale now. For information and to purchase tickets, stop by the Van Wezel Performing Arts Box Office, or visit Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall www.vanwezel.org.
