Jean Ménigault
Renowned French artist Jean Ménigault is coming yet again to Novi Sad, on the Street Musicians Festival! This talented street performer – actor, clown, dancer and pantomime – usually performs in front of audiences in Italy and France, solo or as a member of different troupes. Jean Ménigault (50) is a producer and art director, but also a teacher and instructor.
Whilst a teenager he was a hip-hop dancer, to which he then added a lot of original, clown comedy. Arriving to the capital city of France, the theatre boards saw Ménigault sing and dance, mostly in musical comedies and pantomime pieces.
His one-man show created by the beginning of the 90s, based on pantomime and clown comedy, bringing him numerous awards. Thunderous applause ensued on every festival and stage from Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Spain… all the way to America.
Street theatre soon becomes his greatest love, although business often leads him to the studios of different Italian TV stations. Nonetheless, during the years, the audience most of all loved seeing him on a unicycle, in hilarious clown comedy action, while the critics found most respect in his contribution to various operas by the greats, as are Puccini and Verdi.
