PUPPET THEATRE GOT THE AUDIENCE MOVING IN TAMPERE
MUKAMAS 2022 – International Puppet Theatre Festival was organized for the 12th time from 14 to 18 September in Tampere. The versatile programme of the event included visual puppet shows for all ages. The overall occupancy rate of the festival’s performances was as much as 90 percent.

Log Leg
Log leg is a creative, playful and tender true story based on the performer Jazmína Piktorová’s own childhood.

New Shoes
People of all ages can venture into the child’s world in the gentle flow of popular songs, nature and the sands of time.

A Younger Brother Like No Other
Lili the Bunny is very worried about his little brother Doodoo. Even though he is growing up, he still resembles a little baby. The touching performance gently reminds us of the importance of being together and accepting differences.

Koirakampaamo Villa Koiranen
Dog hairdresser Gilbert Geeli is a favorite of all dogs. The reason is a secret elixir that other dog groomers do not have. In the captivating show, the actors and funny puppet characters guarantee sweet and hilarious moments for the whole family.

Wake Up
Once upon a time… Or maybe right now, there lives a girl. Natalia Sakowicz’s performance delves into the world of the modern girl through well-known fairy tale princesses.

Romance
This solo performance almost feels like a duo performance. So passionately, brutally and intensely, the main character lives a romance with a self-sized doll.

Elo ihmisen…
The evergreen songs make Grandma reminisce about her life from childhood to this moment. Memories pass through the heart as shadow images, winged by music. The show is speechless, but songs and music take you to the important moments of life with the help of pictures.

Kasvokkain
Kasvokkain object theatre monologue combines a puppet theatre and the world of objects, film and art characters, and faces that make fun at our expense.

Discussion about puppets
Shadows come alive in shadow theatre. How did the creators of shadow theatre come up with this form of performance? In what different ways do they use it? For example, these questions are discussed at the Discussion about Puppets event.
