Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker
Sweets" is an exciting way to introduce children to
classical music and usually accompanies Prokofiev's "Peter & the
Wolf. These two world-famous musical pieces are
performed often, but very rarely using puppets and using the
unique black theatre technique, developed by Czech puppeteers in
1960s. This complex and stunning style of presentation allows
complete freedom of movement for the puppets who move effortlessly, without visible means of support,
because the puppeteers standing directly behind them, cannot be
seen. |
