By Yang Zhenxiao

The Italian parent-child interactive comic mime The Frightened Baker, which integrates juggling, dance, acrobatics, pantomime, and clown art, will be performed at the Gengsu Theater on 5th October. By then, everyone can experience the infinite creativity and surprises brought by ‘a ball of flour’ on site.

The Frightened Baker will be performed by the Italian circus theatre duo Andrea and Francesco, who have performed in circuses and theatres since 2005, and have participated in festivals such as the Libourne International Arts Festival and the Aurillac International Arts Festival in France. Using dough as their core prop, they skillfully integrate the agility of juggling, the rhythm of dance, the thrill of acrobatics, the humor of pantomime, and the wit of clown art. Using a ball of flour to create surprises, they allow the audience to experience the performers' superb skills and boundless imagination in laughter.
