Delve into an original and captivating universe of whimsy, ingenuity, and delight with Mummenschanz! For 35 years, this beloved Swiss company has conjured incredible tales that transcend the need for words; they amazingly turn everyday objects and materials into abstract props to tell the audience a story. It is a clever, comic and bizarre world filled with strange creatures, amusing situations, astounding colors and imaginative shapes. Made famous in the U.S. by appearing on The Muppet Show and Sesame Street; Mummenschanz is on their first North American Tour since 2000 and this will be their only performance in Arizona. It is a show that demands very little other than a perpetual smile as children and adults are pulled into this playful world where your sense of wonder is the only passport necessary to enjoy the ride.

“What Mummenschanz does so extraordinarily well is create its own comic universe - a place of constant wonder and ingenuity." Robert Nesti, Boston Herald
