About
A traditional Czech marionette play about Faust, the scholar who makes a pact with Lucifer to find his luck. One puppeteer from Studio Damúza works hand-carved puppets on a wooden box stage, close enough for kids to watch every string. Expect folk-tale devils and a running joke about why naughty children get a potato from them. Best for kids who understand Czech.
