Monsters (6+)<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]What strange creatures the puppets of Duda Paiva are!\u00a0They have funny heads. They have wings and tails but also arms and legs\u2026 what are they? Animals, humans, or both? And they look so sweet and touchable\u2026 but are they?<\/p>\n

Luckily, Narcissus controls the Monsters and he is showing his audience all the tricks he taught them: a somersault, a dance, a song and even how to fly! But Monsters hate to do these tricks. That\u2019s why they rise against him and you begin to ask yourself, who is the real beast here? One thing is clear in this ongoingly changing slapstick performance: what you see is not what you get.<\/p>\n

Duda Paiva about his youth performances:<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cThis cross-over between dance and puppetry resembles the world they know from comics, video-games and animation movies. And suddenly this world appears on stage, almost touchable and becomes creepy real.\u201d<\/em>
