About

A short tabletop puppet show by Basel puppeteer Noëlle-Anne Day-Oboussier, who makes most of the puppets, sets and props by hand. The little stage builds on Japanese kamishibai paper theater, with scenes and figures changed inside a frame. The story, "Surprise," is billed for young and old. The small format draws the audience in, so it suits kids who like to sit close and follow a story.
