Liminal Space opened this week... |
A new shop has opened in the London area that celebrates storytelling in many ways, including the form of toy theatre!
They describe themselves as "...a pop-up shop celebrating storytelling through the making and animating of hand-crafted objects."
You can see more here...
"...the grim ending to Baba Yaga is performed, as we watch a wicked, money-hungry stepmother and her two obnoxious daughters being turned to ash by the flames from a skull's eyes." |
This reminds me of the witch being pushed into the oven in Hansel & Gretel. Is it okay for bad people to be burned alive in a story? I suspect that it is only adults who worry about this kind of thing and children see it as poetic justice.
ReplyDeleteI am charting the making of my first ever toy theatre show, (Hansel & Gretel)at http://puppetlady.wordpress.com
It will be at Harry Oudekerk's festival in Vischmarkt, please come and make some comments.
I will definitely check your blog out, Collette - thanks for visiting, and for all your comments! :)
