Mummenschanz, the renowned international sensation known as “The Musicians of Silence,” will return to the New York City stage for the first time in nearly four years with a new show “You & Me,” according to a press release. The new show was created by Mummenschanz co-founder Floriana Frasetto and will play at The Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College.
The world-renowned company uses a unique blend of mime, dance, and puppetry to tell a captivating story that’s fun for the whole family. In addition to new sketches, the forthcoming show will feature popular bits from past performances.
“They call themselves ‘Musicians of Silence,’ and they truly are,” said WQXR Radio in a press release. “Performing in silence and using the power of the visual to capture the human spirit with fantastical shapes and creatres that are both funny and astoundingly creative.”
