Hansel and Grete
Augustin Kotil
A puppet performance suitable for children age 3 and up / Duration: 40 minutes
A jolly and playful retelling of the story of Hansel and Gretel. Once again the witch is waiting for them after they get lost in the forest – but this time with her cat. And he doesn’t pussyfoot around. The play’s atmosphere is best captured in a letter from one of our viewers, who attended
a performance with his granddaughter: “Trust me – as a the proud grandfather of three grandchildren, I know a good fairy-tale when I see it. And yours was good indeed. Not only by not being terrifying, but primarily by being full of subtle and cleverly arranged and improvised humour.

The Little Lady and the Little Man
The Little Lady and the Little Man
Jana Špalová
The Little Lady and the Little Man live happily in love in their cabin on a green meadow, where they raise chickens. Only their Goat ruins their idyll, because it runs away too often. One day, it again sets out on a forbidden adventure, and so the Little Man has no choice but to go and find it. But when he returns home, he discovers that Little Lady has disappeared. And so he must go on a terrifying journey through the Forest of Fear, the Deep Sea, and the High Mountains, following the voice of a pure heart. One table, two actors, and painted marionettes. All to the sounds of a live ukulele.

The wooden Prince and his loyal horse White set out to the ends of the earth in search of fortune. What might it be? And who will help the Prince on his adventures? Will it be Long and Wide, or perhaps auntie Death? Can an apple tree be transformed into a beautiful maiden? And what about the dragon? There’s got to be a dragon! Come with us on a journey back to your childhood with a story based on traditional fairy-tales. Our painted marionettes, inspired by folk-art toys, are back – and this time there are more than a few!
