Puppet TheatreHandcraft, dramaturgy and future

Puppet theatre productions are a multi-layered, dramatic combination of design elements, animation processes and physically specific performing arts. All these aspects are based on handcraft traditions dating back centuries, which continue to provide lasting inspiration for today’s puppeteers.

The image depicts two puppet figures with intricately carved wooden faces, standing against a solid black background. The character on the left is dressed in a fur-lined, regal robe, holding an hourglass, while the figure on the right wears a patterned outfit with a somber expression. The hourglass, a symbol of time passing, is central to the scene, and both characters appear elderly and reflective, adding a contemplative, philosophical tone to the image.
