Abstract:

The contribution provides a deliberation on the current state of affairs in the field of puppet art in Slovenia. The author of the article is a member of the Ljubljana Puppet Theatre and thus relates her understanding of the state of Slovene puppetry from the subjective viewpoint of a co-creator. The article focuses on understanding the structure of two professional puppet theatres in Slovenia (Ljubljana Puppet Theatre and Puppet Theatre Maribor), as well as independent freelance artists. She stresses the sensitivity in developments in puppetry and care for its comprehensive development.

Abstract:

Until the twentieth century notions of dramaturgy were closely bound up with the Poetics of Aristotle, often leaving out of account less ‘regular’ forms from Shakespeare to the melodrama. From the 17th to the 19th century live actors and puppets could be virtually interchangeable, performing the same or similar repertoires. Adaptation of plays from the actors’ theatre was the general rule. Comparatively few authors wrote directly for the puppet stage, and when they did it was usually under special circumstances. In the nineteenth century a juvenile market began to grow, Two main streams in Eur

It can be considered in a broader context as the mastery of puppet theatre groups of poetic works of modern Ukrainian authors – Serhii Zhadan, Oksana Zabuzhko, etc. – whose names have not yet appeared on the posters of this type of theatre, during the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war.

Abstract:

This paper analyses contemporary puppet theatre adaptations of selected Hans Christian Andersen stories.

Results of the analysis have shown the connection between the selected stories and puppet theatre in terms of bringing the inanimate to life as a characteristic inherent to puppet theatre, and in the shift to the unreal as a key feature of fantasy stories, which in puppet s

Abstract:

Background, problems and innovations of the study. The modern Puppet Theater in Poland is a phenomenon that is very difficult for definition and it opposes its own identification itself. Problems here start at the stage of fundamental definitions already. In English, the case is simpler: “doll” means a doll, a toy, and “puppet” is a theatrical puppet, as well as in French functions “poup&#233;e” and “marionette” respectively. In Polish, one word serves both semantic concepts, and it is the reason that most identify the theater of puppets with theater for children, that is a big mistake. Wa

This article outlines the popularity - and financial success - of an eighteenth-century Dublin puppet theatre that threatened mainstream theatres of the time. Randall Stretch’s puppet theatre, in Dublin’s Capel Street, became the centrepiece for satirical and political commentary of the day. Stretch’s theatre caught the attention of Dean Swift and his circle and is commemorated in satirical verse of the period. For decades, Dubliners used the phrase ‘This is more of Stretch’s Show’ to refer to anything outlandish or incredible. The article underlines the power of the puppet theatre as a satiri

Theatre and puppet director Alexander Morfov has been slowly revolutionizing Bulgarian theatre over the last 25 years. His most important contribution to this theatre is its emancipation from prejudice against stage spectacle. He has achieved this by ingeniously fusing the languages of drama and puppet theatre, which remains the only truly original and novel theatre reality on Bulgarian stages. The article focuses mainly on his performance On the Edge.

Background, objectives of the research. The article reveals the method of improving the professional skills of the actor of the puppet theater, aimed at the organic connection of the puppet technique with the actor’s internal psycho-techniques. The peculiarity of creating a stage image in the puppet theater is that the functions of the puppeteer actor in the creating of a role “on the inside line” coincide with the functions of the drama theatre actor. However, the process of making the stage character in the puppet show is built according to other laws: “vitalizing” through the puppet – the m

Abstract:

Founded in 1988, primus is one of several small theatre companies that have sprung up in Winnipeg. Fickle subscription audiences have made times tough for larger theatres, and recent cuts to arts funding have seen the Manitoba Arts Council cancel operations funding for three small companies: Agassiz Theatre, Forty Below Mime and the Manitoba Puppet Theatre. Although the mac claims that specific circumstances demanded the cuts in each case, we have not seen any new grants of operations funding awarded to small theatres since. Nonetheless, small companies continue to struggle into existence and

Abstract:

Puppetry is a resilient art form, as has been evidenced by the response of puppeteers to the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Perhaps this is fitting, as puppeteers have a long history of travelling to perform and adapting their performances to changing circumstances. In this report, we provide a sample of puppetry projects that are taking place around the world and some insights from puppeteers on how they are working through COVID-19; using puppetry to teach about COVID-19 and teaching puppetry in general; to entertain and to perform puppetry that is offered as ritual at a time of crisis.

Abstract:

The article discusses the changes in puppetry that occurred mostly in the second half of the 20th century. It addresses the changes in organization that led from small family groups to institutionalized public institutions and follows the organizational example of ensembles of drama theatre institutions, as well as changes in the relationship between the animator and the puppet that allow the disillusioning emergence of the animator into the visual field of the viewer. The “manipulator” who is no longer hidden influences the change in the manner of narration, in the aesthetic and the political

Abstract:

Federico García Lorca was a versatile artist, known as a musiáan, poet, dramatist, essaywriter, and the director and actor of the Barraca Troupe, to mention only some important moments of his short but outstanding artistic career. Since his poems and dramas are well known amongst the Hungarian audience, instead of repeating clichés, this study selected a segment of Lorca's life work that is still considered a foster child among literary genres. This genre is the puppet-theatre, which always played a significant role in Lorca's life. The roots of this enthusiasm must be sought in his childhood,

Donald Vestal's 1930s puppet theatre production of a Gertrude Stein play, Identity, or I Am I Because My Little Dog Knows Me, marked a confluence of Midwest modernism, the resources of the Federal Theatre Project, the development of American puppet theatre as a modernist art form, and the coincidental presence of Stein, Vestal, Thornton Wilder, Bil Baird, and other artists of 1930s Chicago.

Processes of artistic reparation and memory recovery are spaces created for victims of state terrorism and family members of the disappeared in the context of the military dictatorship in Chile (1973‐90). Puppet therapy was utilized as a methodology by the company Puppets in Transit with participants drawn from Integrated Health Services in Chile in relation to reparation projects. This process of intervention with puppets seeks to restore social bonds, to enable an intergenerational dialogue and to transmit fragmented memory.

Abstract:

Puppet artists, from the fatherly Geppetto in The Adventures of Pinocchio to the more troubled Craig Schwartz in Being John Malkovich, are often represented as loners, pursuing their chosen art without any outside aid. The solitary puppet artist certainly exists, but as Steve Tillis points out, “[T]he opportunity for control that puppetry offers the artist is frequently taken up less for artistic reasons than for financial ones, at least in America”; and the situation is not markedly different in Canada: “[I]t is often only by working alone that an artist can earn a living” (33).
