Famous Cookin' Nanta-Kitchen utensils transformed into musical instruments?

When my dad visited South Korea few months ago, he had a chance to  watch this world famous Cookin' Nanta.It's a non verbal comedy show where knives and other kitchen utensils are transformed  into musical  instruments in the hands of the performers.A frying pan,a water bottle,a pot,a chopping board and a knife..musical instruments??




By 2014 July Nanta had staged in 289 cities,51 countries.Since the 1st performance on the 10th of October 1997, Cookin' Nanta  has been drawing the largest number of audience in Korean stage history and this famous show has broadened its stage from Seoul and Jeju island to Broadway NY.

This show incorporates  traditional Korean Samulnori rhythms of Jajinmori,Utdari,Puneori etc. The musical has  a simple back story of three cooks.The three attractive cooks start their day,then their ill natured manager orders them to prepare 10 wedding menus to be prepared in an hour.So our cooks become wild as they chop, beat and stir in an attempt to meet their deadline.Will NANTA cooks complete their target on time??

Well the rest is up to you to find out. :) Next time when you go to Korea,make sure to watch this world famous musical.And there is something wonderful.We,audience also can help them in kitchen.and in the end you will get a nice picture like this.

So Don't Miss this wonderful experience next time you go to Korea!!!
