Toy
theatre! The own little stage - like in the
old times before telly!
We each build our own little toy theatre with
props, scenery and actors.
A short history of toy theatre for introduction,
then right into a story and the making of
all necessary equipment! After making we need
time to rehearse and perfect the scene.
At the end we can exhibit the theatres and
perform little plays for friends and family.

Shadow theatre

Play
with Light and Shadow
We create little 2-dimensional puppets that come
to life as small or gigantic shadow figures on a
screen. We will explore objects in shadow - a fist
becomes a face!
We can experiment what happens with size depending
on the relation of the object to the screen/light.
Using an overhead projector, colourful sets and
backgrounds are possible.
After exploring the materials we will invent scenes
and rehearse them to show them at the end of the
course to friends and family.

Sock puppets

Help!
My sock is talking!
We make a sock monster! An old sock and some
fantasy - glue, needle and thread
a
bit of patience and we are rewarded with a
new friend with a big mouth!
After building we will immediately explore
the puppet and confront them with other sock
monsters in a scene. Little pieces will evolve
that can be refined and presented at the end
of the course.

Finger puppets

Finger
puppets - the easy way! Everyone creates his
own world.
With cardboard we make puppet heads and bring
them to life on our fingertips.
After explaining the easy technique, we draw
and paint the figures. After the break we
will discover their character - how do they
move, how do they speak and what do they love
and hate
They meet other new characters and little
scenes evolve. Maybe props are needed?
The polished scenes can be shown to a VIP
audience of friends and family members.
Age 4-8, group size: 5-10

Puppet
theatre in education
I offer for each production the possibility
to prepare before and reflect after a show
the theatre experience with a playful puppet
workshop, in which puppets are build,
used and the topic of the show is introduced
and later reflected.
Information under download/puppet theatre
education workshop.
I conduct workshops like this regularly
since 2009 in primary schools in Luebeck
for the repertory of the Figurentheater
Lübeck (financed by the Michael Haukohl
Foundation).
