Puppetmastaz go Volksbühne am Rosa Luxemburg Platz

After the breakup, it becomes clearer and clearer what has led to it. Obviously a part of the group wanted to go back to theatre, and also share the stage with human actors, while others wanted to keep it puppets only. While some of the former members now seem to go their own ways, a small group of Puppets under the lead of Mr. Maloke went for it.
For the first time Puppetmastaz will be sharing the stage with actors. With their debut work “Frankenstein’s Little Red Riding Hood”, they will try to fill the gap between adult and children’s theatre, horror flick and musical. In a psychedelic melange of the Grimm brothers’ fairy tale and the Frankenstein legend, two mythical stories are superimposed. Other than in the fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood has a very egotistical grandmother who violently urges her to run errands for her guesthouse in the woods. The way through the woods remains dangerous and soon the little girl gets lost in her own story. Only the mean wolf is really the mean wolf… Just like Little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother, master Maloke Frankenstein also dreams of having offspring suiting his taste and is working on the new being. His assistant Igor’s small brain seems to be big enough for the task. The result is his own reflection… But that is only the beginning. Stories –as already said- intertwine, we meet each other somewhere else and Igor does not need a bigger brain to be able to provide loyal services to his boss.
For adults and children who are at least 8 years old.
