“Moments of Love” & “The little mouse who wanted to play accordion”
The Greek Centre of the International Union of Puppetry Arts, in collaboration with the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation, present: ‘Puppet Evenings’ from 11th February until the 25th March 2010, every Thursday, 8pm at the “Black Box” Hall of MCF, 206 Peiraios st, Tavros, Athens.
1st Performance (Moments of Love):
A concert with extraordinary characters. The Brazilian dancer of Samba, Miss Maruka, Mr. Dupi, the big Rock Star who is looking for his lady in the audience. A music performance based on comedy turns. A game in which puppets and audience are involved. Puppets come alive in actors’ hands and “touch” the spectator’s feelings in a magic way.
A crazy performance for children as well as adults!
Musicians, singers and divas perform walking all around in mincing steps flooding the stage of a concert hall with expertise. The owner as well as proud manager of the hall is Mr. Alaloupis. The soloists are, Mr. Miaourlis, a male cat, who is a virtuoso guitar and trumpet player, as well as Miss Miou, a famous pianist. These two “cannot tolerate each other but cannot live apart as well.”
Our Puppeteer, as a musician as well, wants to participate in that huge concert hall – if not in size, certainly in fame. It is the bureaucracy and filthy Bibis ‘the little mouse- that block the progress of his career”.
