Puppetry theatre is an expressive means of conveying ideas. This workshop led by Eduardo Felix offers the opportunity to engage in creative work with puppets while undergoing different phases of conceptual development. This fosters both individual as well as collective skills. During the workshop, manipulation techniques developed by the ensemble will be introduced, based on the nature of movement and the relation between performer and puppet. In this way, the participants will be encouraged to create characters that shape the puppet into an important catalyst.
