Università Roma Tre

Study meetings and laboratory meetings dedicated to specific areas of puppet theatre framed by scholars, artists and teachers both from an historiographical point of view and from the scenic practice's perspective. “Marionettes, puppets, shadows and dummies between East and West”: these are the topics of the meetings of this course, meetings with scholars and, above all, with the masters of these theatrical traditions.
The objective is to analyse the “living” puppet theatre, its expressive possibilities and, at the same time, the great traditions included in it, that today live renewing themselves. So, traditions and crafts, but also history and modernity of a living theatre. Material theatre and, at the same time, theatre of history and memory.
