Lecture, Trick Variety Marionettes

Dancers, trapeze artists, breakaway skeletons, and the unique Czech Stomper puppets... how are these marionettes designed, constructed and (especially) strung?

Get an in-depth look at the technology of marionettes that can do special tricks from Mirek Trejtnar, a puppet designer with 35 years of experience. Find out the history of these special marionettes, which were a favorite among itinerant puppeteers in the 18th and 19th centuries.

This is part of our Puppets in Prague during PQ series - events (not only) for scene designers, students and other guests coming to the world-famous Prague Quadrennial.
