An interactive puppet playground where you can invent, tell stories, sit, run, laugh, all in front of the best audience in the world - parents and friends. 

Kids! Come and play your favorite fairy tale! Become an actor, director, musician, or theater critic for a moment. If you don’t know how to start, there is a magical starter to draw the beginning of a story. Puppet+playground=puppetland. Five original standalone constructions for puppet theater with various backdrops and sets of puppets intended for public space, open for play and the development of the whole family’s imagination. A reminder of the Baroque tradition of puppet theaters, an open play for all kids full of imagination and for parents without it.

Suitable for children from 3 years old. We ask parents to respect the recommended age limit
Duration of the performance is approximately 45 minutes 

We play in the park opposite BBD at Dunajská 21. In case of bad weather, the production moves to the BBD premises at Dunajská 36.

Waxwing Theatre   

This is a creative team of Zuzana Smolová and Peter Gaffney. They are interested in diverse theatrical techniques, exploring various genres, creating theater that contains intense, indescribable, irrational elements that affect and shape the contemporary human experience. Their work is based on an original creative process that works with techniques of movement theater, puppets, masks, music, text, and experimenting with materials such as clay, sand, water, paper, glass, steel, and wood.

Concept: Táňa Švehlová

Puppets and constructions: Zuzana Smolová and Peter Gaffney
