The story of Pinocchio is an amazing adventure that has troubled many generations and is still alive today. Pinocchio is a metaphor for how mistakes also shape a person.
Mistakes are not necessarily something bad; they are often the only way to better understand life and change. The Italian writer Gianni Rodari once said that mistakes are necessary as bread, and often even beautiful, for example, the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Pinocchio is not an ordinary performance. It is a performance that plunges into the puppet world, to the origin, when the doll is not yet a fully manufactured and illustrative object, but is still a raw, untreated material. In Pinocchio, this is, of course, Wood, a noble material that accompanies humanity almost completely from the beginning. Wood, which hardly promises to make something out of it, and in puppet magic we already see individual characters from the story in it, is joined by already made dolls, this time inspired by the Old Masters. This time the staging returns to the carpentry workshop, the woodworking tool comes to life, and the pieces of wood on the carpentry table become the whole world in miniature. Pinocchio goes on a trip, and we go to a training ground to explore puppet expression.
* replicas of wooden puppets by the famous puppeteer Anton Jezovsk (1905 - 1992) are also used in the performance.
The performance is also suitable for Primary School students and adults
Zgodba o Ostržku je neverjetna pustolovščina, ki je vznemirjala že mnoge generacije in je živa še danes. Ostržek je metafora tega, kako tudi napake oblikujejo človeka.
Napake niso nujno nekaj slabega; pogosto so edini način, da življenje bolje razumemo in se spreminjamo. Italijanski pisatelj Gianni Rodari je nekoč dejal, da so napake nujne kot kruh in pogosto celo lepe, na primer poševni stolp v Pisi.
Ostržek ni običajna predstava. Je predstava, ki se potopi v lutkovni svet, k izvoru, ko lutka še ni povsem izdelan in nazoren predmet, ampak je še surov, neobdelan material. V Ostržku je to seveda les, žlahten material, ki človeštvo spremlja skoraj povsem od začetka. Lesu, ki komaj obeta, da bo iz njega nekaj nastalo, v lutkovni čarovniji pa v njem že vidimo posamezne like iz zgodbe, se pridružijo že izdelane lutke, tokrat navdihnjene pri starih mojstrih. Tokratna uprizoritev se vrača v mizarsko delavnico, orodje za obdelovanje lesa oživi, kosi lesa pa na mizarski mizi postanejo ves svet v malem. Ostržek odide na potovanje, mi pa na poligon za raziskovanje lutkovnega izraza.
* v predstavi so uporabljene tudi replike lesenih lutk znamenitega lutkarja Antona Jezovška (1905 - 1992).
Predstava je primerna tudi za osnovnošolce in odrasle
