Compagnie Muzir wHERE MUSIC MEETS MAGIC

"When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies..."

Peter Pan, J. M. Barrie

Have we forgotten how a fairy sounds like? Somehow I feel like I remember but in the morning, when I wake up, it's but a vague feeling, distant and mysterious. Something that calls for me, but it seems like I cannot hear it... I feel its warmth and playfulness though and I remember how beautiful it was, how much I loved it, but when I try to recall it, nothing really comes. Was it "hmm hmm hmm?" Or "tee da dum di da?" Maybe more "ting ting dong" as if very high up in the sky. Maybe that's why I cannot reach it anymore, I'm too grounded. Too serious. Perhaps if I climb this tree or take this elevator I might be able to get closer to it. I wish I could listen to it again! Let's try to find it back, wherever it is. It was so harmonious... Oh but that's it! A melody! It sounded like a melody!

This search is exactly what Mila (Sarah Gos) will undertake in the world of her dreams. Stuck in her sleep by a bunch of mischievous and funny pixies she will have to find the enchanting melody and the wooden key that will enable her to escape from her troubled and beautiful dream.

The "Compagnie Muzir" is very proud to present its first show "Mila's Méli-Mélo Dream", addressed to children of all age (up to 99 years old) that are willing to follow Mila in her adventures. They will discover a charming little girl and six eccentric creatures evolving in a world of creation, where circus arts, dance, theater and live music are mixed for the pleasure of both eyes and ears.

Compagnie Muzir

The "Compagnie Muzir" was created in 2020 by Jean-Noël Gos. Based in Basel, Switzerland, this small company of 7 artists aims to create interdisciplinary performances that mix circus, theater, dance and music. Their first production is a children's show named "Mila's Méli-Mélo Dream". But first and foremost is Muzir a family project and a long awaited dream to share and create with the talents of each. The second of four siblings in a family of artists, Jean-Noël naturally asked his two sisters Deborah and Sarah and his brother Jonathan to take part in his project. Eva Fischer, Nora Welti and Sebastian Till joined the brotherhood to finally create the company, bringing along their wonderful skills and valuable ideas. Under the artistic direction of Eva Fischer, the "Compagnie Muzir" is an inspiring collective where every members can express his or her priceless creativity, by all means!
