Crisis of an Artists Resolving Existence

A specific puppet and theatre act based on the Novel of Chicken on Plums by Marjane Satrapi, the contemporary star of “woman comics” (her Persepolis was the first Iranian comic in the world). This daring assault on your funny bone will be commanded by Cat, Ball, Ball of Wool, Pig, Dolls, Metronome, Violin, Everyday Garbage, the unusual uncle Jirka and Pretty Mary. The story of Karel who is over 30, has three children, one wife and a broken violin. A major theme presented in an appalling manner. Simply – punk as it should be.
