Period of Coming Tour: Aug, 2020

Manuschka & Michelino

Poetic clown theater with lots of live music and sounding (or musical) juggling.
The contact with the audience and an improvisational freshness make the performance a special experience for young and old from 3 - 103.

Clown Michelino has finally found a wife! Clown Woman Manuschka loves the audience, the music and sweet chocolate, that she wants to have all to herself.

So misunderstandings and all sorts of strange complications do not stay out.

But the two outsmart and help each other with unexpected actions and solutions...

With it: not only the smallest instrument in the world, no - even the smallest orchestra in the world. In addition, flying hats and the most beautiful place in the world.

Previous performances of the duo M & M:

in children's villages kindergartens, schools, social projects and theatres in Austria, Germany, Italy, Romania and China.
