The Dark Trullala - A Puppeteer´s Nightmare

A Puppeteer’s Nightmare

Something is moving under the blanket.
A familiar figure in a strange guise appears.
He’s in control of what’s happening.
He has a goal.
And he’s dangerous.
It’s Kasper!

 

A woman is lying on a bed, asleep. Suddenly, something begins to move under the blanket. A small figure emerges from the darkness, looks around, and strokes the face of the young, sleeping woman. Through subtle movements, the hand puppet manages to manipulate the woman. As if in a trance, she follows its commands and completely loses control of her body. For many generations, puppeteers have made their Kasper dance for us, made him embody their thoughts, and kept him under their control. In “THE DARK TRULLALA – A Puppeteer’s Nightmare,” there is a change in command.
