Pantomime Farce
“Le Boeuf sur le Toit”
The production comes in two different packages, one for festivals and Performing arts series; the other for symphonies.
and Festivals
T. Daniel & Laurie Willets have been hailed as two of the best mimes of this generation. Their work has been applauded around the world for their innovative style, off beat sense of humor and their theatrical flare. These are the qualities that they brought to the production of Jean Cocteau’s Le Boeuf sur le toit, it these qualities that will entice the audience in the first part of the evening’s theatrical presentation.
The first part of the evening is accompanied by pre-recorded music by Tangerine Dream, and the presentation of Jean Cocteau’s Le Boeuf sur le toit is accompanied by live music of four-hand piano. T. Daniel Productions provides all props and personnel, the sponsor provides, stage, stage lights, sound system and piano.
In all this makes of a fascinating and entertaining evening of great theatre, of great music, of great Mime.
This is a great addition to the classical fare offered by symphony orchestras. Seldom is a theatrical work created the welds the music with the action, where the music is an entrical part of the theatrical performance. Such is the case with Jean Cocteau’s Le Boeuf sur le toit, especially in the way and manner that T. Daniel and Laurie Willets have fashioned the work. This is a great opportunity to see, and hear, a work of classical music and play that are seldom performed together.
