Figurina Theatre of Animation: The kidnapping of the Sun and the Moon - Manualis - Hands That Tell a Story

20. Wednesday 16:30     Kövér Béla Puppet Theatre

19'

Figurina Animation Theatre, the first Hungarian private puppet theatre after forty years, was founded in 1983 by Gábor Siklósi and his wife Klára Fers. The group regularly tours in Hungary and at international festivals as well as plays at several theatres in Budapest. Figurina likes to perform with puppets, but prefers more original forms of expression, such as „pure animation” based on fantasy: acting with hands and objects. All their shows are written, created, and performed by the group itself.

In this show the world is enacted by hands. When they perform for children, the performers first initiate their young audience to the finesses of hand playing. Then, with no other help than hands and music, they tell a thrilling tale of a brave young lad who defeated the dragon who had kidnapped the Sun and the Moon.
