The musical has a simple back story of three cooks attempting to finish preparing a wedding banquet within a strict time limit while the manager installs his incompetent nephew among the kitchen staff. The show involves acrobatics, magic tricks, comedy, pantomime and audience participation. The unifying element throughout the musical is the use of traditional Korean samul nori music, which in this case is performed with improvised instruments, such as cutting boards, water canisters and kitchen knives. The performance is almost completely non-verbal.
Nanta is the first nonverbal performance in Korea, which is only composed by rhythm and beats. 4 chefs are performing Samulnori (traditional percussion quartet) with kitchenware during the process of cooking for a wedding reception. Nanta is the representative musical in Korea both nominally and virtually. It is also renowned overseas and already 10 million viewers watched this show.

Nanta
A Non-verbal performance integrates Korea’s traditional rhythm, Samulnori, with comedy and drama in the kitchen. Audiences of all ages and nationalities can enjoy. The musical has a simple back story of three cooks attempting to finish preparing a wedding banquet within a strict time limit while the manager installs his incompetent nephew among the kitchen staff. The show involves acrobatics, magic tricks, comedy, pantomime and audience participation. The unifying element throughout the musical is the use of traditional Korean samul nori music, which in this case is performed with improvised instruments, such as cutting boards, water canisters and kitchen knives. The performance is almost completely non-verbal.
Nanta is the first nonverbal performance in Korea, which is only composed by rhythm and beats. 4 chefs are performing Samulnori (traditional percussion quartet) with kitchenware during the process of cooking for a wedding reception. Nanta is the representative musical in Korea both nominally and virtually. It is also renowned overseas and already 10 million viewers watched this show.
