Description |
Challenging adult puppet theatre, Stuffed Puppet Theatre has received growing appreciation as an exceptional puppet theatre group. The two new productions to be performed at the Festival, Manipulator and Underdog, form a diptych on the theme of dominance and subordination. In Manipulator this theme is interpreted in a humorous, cartoon-like manner; in Underdog the audience is carried along in an intensely dramatic way to experience the oppression of the underdog's world. |
