Block — International Puppet Festival

When the last visitor has gone and the museum closes, the night guard is left alone with a mysterious sculpture called Block. That is exactly when strange things start to happen. The guard spends his nights among his chair, his torch and his teapot, keeping careful watch over a work nobody is allowed to touch — and it is there, in the least likely place, that a small spark of magic appears. Over the night the boundaries blur between forbidden and permitted, living and inanimate, invention and reality. A virtuoso show of clowning, video art and object theatre around material that comes to life. By Golem Theatre. Part of the International Puppet Festival.
