The living legend is back! Marcel Marceau - the world's greatest mime - returns to the A.R.T. with a stunning new program. Les Contes Fantastiques features the master entertainer displaying his unique talents in a solo first act. Then Marceau & Company dazzle as they fill the stage with three "fantasy tales." As performed by Marceau and the finest next-generation mimes personally selected and trained by the maestro himself, these fables will enchant you with the expressive beauty of Marceau's contemporary artistry - with influences as diverse as Noh theatre, modern dance and Chinese face manipulation (come see for yourself!).

Millions have enjoyed Marcel Marceau's work over the years. Now you can delight in a totally new vision from this extraordinary artist!
