Waxwing Theatre: Bábkovisko (CZ/USA)

The performance is part of the inaugural year of the international festival PRIENIKY. More information can be found at www.prieniky.sk

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

Children! Come 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’s a magical starter for you to draw the beginning of a fairy tale. Puppet + playground = puppetry space. Five original independent constructions for puppet theater with various backdrops and sets of puppets designed for public space, open for play and developing the imagination of the entire family. A reminder of the baroque tradition of puppet theaters, open play for all children with imagination and for parents without it.

Suitable for children aged 3 and up. We ask parents to respect the recommended age limit.
Duration of the performance: approximately 45 minutes 

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

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

Concept: Táňa Švehlová
