Figurentheater Tübingen: Wunderkammer Tickets
Three puppeteers welcome you to a cabinet of curiosities...
Overview
Three puppeteers welcome you to a cabinet of curiosities where rare artefacts and familiar objects, the wonderful and the mundane, come together in near-perfect equilibrium.
One by one they mysteriously emerge: a pair of golden hands caresses human hair, long-limbed folk dance and sway, two miniature musicians comically duel it out, and an unfathomable creature floats in air and water.
Demonstrating the allure and magnetism of string marionettes, Frank Soehnle leads a company of renowned German puppeteers who visibly orchestrate their strange cast with utmost grace, eliciting the subtlest expressions of movement. Referencing art, science and the natural world through their mystical creations, they all interact and elegantly play, to the tempo of an atmospheric score. Sweet, melancholic and sometimes tongue in cheek, Wunderkammer is a gem of puppet-theatre.
