Kasper Hooligan Ode: A Slapstick Rip-roar in Magdeburg's Puppet Theatre
Puppet Theater Magdeburg Hosts Kasper-Themed Festival - Magdeburg Puppet Theatre is organizing a festival specifically for Kasper character.
Gear up for some hysterical hilarity! The largest puppet theatre in Germany, Tri-tra-trullalla in Magdeburg, is hosting a five-day revelry, saluting the notorious Kasper – the trickster, jester, rabble-rouser, and disruptor – with a riotous festival called "Kasper? Kasper!". Mark your calendars from June 4 to 8 for the festivity of 16 international guest shows, declaring the grand opening of the boisterous bash. This whimsical shindig promises to enthrall children and adults alike, using every nook of the venue, even the sprawling outdoor area.
Hand Puppetry Showdown: Modern Meets Old School
The extravaganza is centered on the timeless "Kasper play principle" and the allure of hand puppetry. From the classic amusement of street theater to the cutting-edge experimentation of avant-garde productions, the festival is a celebration of creativity and tradition. It will culminate with interactive workshops and an exhibition lent by the German Forum for Puppet Theatre Bochum, where the artistry of the little monster will shine.
Creative Smackdown: A Mashup of Minds
Over a dozen students from celebrated puppet theater courses across Germany, Poland, and Ukraine will grapple it out in a brainstorming bonanza. They will share ideas with the pros and attend a symposium featuring puppeteers from UK, Austria, Brazil, France, and Ukraine. The festival is determined to establish Kasper theatre as part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage of humanity.
