Chouf Ouchouf
Chouf Ouchouf, the new show from Collectif Acrobatique de Tanger and Zimmermann & de Perrot will be touring the UK April and May 2011.
Weaving together contemporary performance and traditional Moroccan acrobatics in a poetic exploration of North African culture, Chouf Ouchouf reflects the daily life in the Medina in a witty and highly skilled show for all ages over seven.
“...with an insouciant brilliance, they fill the stage with multiple back-flips, dizzying cartwheels, perilous human pyramids and vaulting trampoline stunts… everyone was spellbound.” The Guardian on previous show Taoub
“The mix of skill [and] sleight of hand is irresistible, and the piece has a gleeful magpie tendency – thieving from absurdism, popular cartoons, surrealism and modern dance.” The Guardian on their recent LIMF show Öper Öpis at Barbican

"Following the excitement about our JTCE selection with ‘Bed’ it became clear that this new work deserves it’s own title. The work we are developing has it’s own identity and a different feel from the street theatre work that Frenetic Engineering are known for so we are excited to launch a new sister company." Annabelle Holland, Director
