Hey! Was wondering if any of you Spain based folks have been to see Mayumana that is playing at the Nuevo Apolo theater. I have seen the ads for it in the Metro and it reminded me a bit of STOMP (which I really liked). Was wondering if this was a cheap take off of Stomp or something different. Any recommendations?

Hi Booklady!
According to the blurb in the Gu�a de Ocio, Mayumana is based on the hebrew word "Meyumanut" -- destreza in Spanish meaning skill or dexterity. It�s a musical from Israel that is described as a spectacle of percussion, humor and color.

Hey chica... I don't know whether it's the same or related to 'STOMP' or not, but thought I'd mention that I heard the whole troupe on the radio (Europa FM) a week and half ago. They were giving interviews and demos of some of their material. I thought it sounded pretty cool myself. ...For what it's worth...

I guess their main thing is playing percussion and singing to carribean types of beats, however their percussion instruments can me one of a large assortment of every day household items if I understood correctly. They don't use your typical congosas, bongosas, etc. I liked what I heard. They seemed to be having a lot of fun with what they were playing as well.

Hola y Aloha, amigos!

Yes, I�ve seen Mayumana recently, and, although it was quite well performed and produced, and I totally loved it, the prices were a bit steep (30 Euros for mid-priced seats on a Friday) for a performance of only about an hour and a half or less, with about the last 15 minutes of it being kind of a drawn-out curtain-call without anything really cool happening... But the meat of it was pretty excellent, particularly the "scenes from a restaurant" part (see it and you�ll knowhutImean)....Lots of energy, and use of the theatre for the performance...Definately a happy vibe....

On the other hand, if you�re just a fat daddy with a wad to blow, by all means, see it! Sure beats seeing the Jackass film six times.....(but of course, it doesn�t beat seeing the Jackass film SEVEN times..jejejeje Wink )

Snootchie-Bootchies,
Choop
