About
Přelet nad loutkářským hnízdem (Flight over the Puppetry Nest) is the yearly showcase of the most interesting Czech puppet theater from the past season. Nearly 30 productions play, alongside debates for the puppetry world. Kids come for the puppet shows, many of them fairy tales. Everything is in Czech, so it best suits families whose children follow the language.
