Also arriving to this year\u2019s Street Musicians Festival are some truly illustrious names from France, Italy and Great Britain: actor, dancer and mime Jean M\u00e9nigault<\/strong> will show the audience what a hilarious clown action looks like, the art couple Ferdinando D\u2019Andria<\/strong> and Maila Sparapani<\/strong> will stage a show-concert full of gags and high-altitude acrobatics, while Craig Sutton, better known as The Flamenco Thief<\/em><\/strong>, will play his extraordinary jazz-flamenco mix.<\/p>\n

French artist Jean M\u00e9nigault<\/strong> is a renowned street performer, successful producer, art director and instructor. Whilst a teenager he was a hip-hop dancer, to which he then added a lot of original, clown comedy. Afterwards, the theatre boards saw him sing and dance, mostly in musical comedies and pantomime pieces.<\/p>\n

\"Zan<\/p>\n

He created his one-man show<\/em><\/strong> by the beginning of the 90s, found on pantomime and clown performances. Today, street theatre is his greatest passion, although business often leads him to the studios of different Italian TV stations. Most of all, the audience loves seeing M\u00e9nigault as a clown on a motorcycle, while the critics respect his contribution to operas by the greats as are Puccini<\/strong> and Verdi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
