musical-theatrical psycho slap-stick inspired by dystopia 1984
The underground headquarters of the future society is led by the smartest animals on the world: rats! Primitive puppets. Meet them from two eyes to twelve eyes – they already know about you and they are waiting for your reaction!
The simple principle of puppet theater as a paraphrase of today’s lifestyle and the power of capital as the most powerful thing. Old folk music combines experimental sound of new musical instruments.
New theatrical form – combination of puppet craft and experiment.
