Description Intimate and universal, tragic and surreally outrageous, In Absentia is a hauntingly evocative experience. Life-sized puppets, automata, shadow puppetry and theatrical magic combine beautifully to create a moving and thought-provoking glimpse into the world of dementia. The reality of the illness for a mother and son s highlighted and brought into unique focus through the unreal world of Tablo's award-winning, exquisitely crafted puppetry.
