Description You'll never think of puppet shows in the same way again once you've experienced Titeres Porno. Humour, art and sexuality combine in this collection of erotic Colombian tales performed by a troupe of anatomically correct puppets. It's quite literally hardcore gone soft. And it's just one of many original, entertaining and irreverent late-night showstaking place inside the Spiegeltent at Aotea Square, where you'll also find the Festival Garden. Eat, drink, relax and be entertained in the charming surroundings of the heart of the festival. Manolo, a Spaniard who journeys to Colombia to follow his dream of becoming a porn star, striptease queen Brigitte (winner of the 2009 Titeros Porno Award for the best stripper in the world), housecleaner Gladix, her mistress Doa Susana, cousins Mario and Esmeralda are just some of the enticing and unpredictable characters. Spontaneous, fun and very rude, Titeres Porno (literally 'Porno Puppets') is a spicy late-night show for the adventurous Festival-goer. Adentro Producciones (Inside Productions) was formed by Maribell Arango, Girlenny Caravajal, Maria Ochoa, Carlos Perez and John Viana. The Colombian company's work grows out of their exploration of puppet manipulation and construction, acting, dramatic language and staging. Using a cast of sexed puppets - some natural, some medically enhanced - they tell seductive stories that treat cultural and sexual diversity with tolerance and respect.
