Muruya wants to wear high hills & fancy clothes but her awkwardness won´t let her. She really trys to get her hair done…. But is not possible, the curly hair is out of control.
Muruya dreams about dancing tango with a man, she looks trough the audience looking for a dancing partner….
Instead she dances with Mingo, her giant puppet.
The slack rope appears to bring the balance
that curly lady clown is missing.
Without many words this curly lady clown communicates a lot using circus skills as slack rope, hat manipulation, clownery & hulla hulla.
