Workshops

After a successful series of workshops in the 2023/24 season, held at the Táborka Community Centre for teachers and then in schools for their pupils, we decided to hold one workshop in 2025 for those who were not reached. The workshop focused on the use of DidaDiv - a cardboard puppet theatre as a didactic tool will take place again in the cosy environment of the Táborka Community Centre in Vyšehrad. The May workshop will be followed by cooperation with DidaDiv ambassadors directly in schools. This time we will be collecting a symbolic fee to cover overhead costs. We look forward to welcoming new DidaDiv ambassadors.Please register here.

Cardboard theatre afternoon

Children, parents, passers-by and visitors of Fiesta New Stage could experience making their own home puppet theatre. With the help of lectors and simple instructions, everyone could create their own theatre mini-performances based on a original screenplay. The general rehearsal was followed by a public premiere. The aim of the family workshop was to familiarize visitors with the basic language of puppet theatre and the power of expression in the smallest - cardboard - form. Members of the Free Apples Association were inspired by the creation and work of August Boal and Bread And Puppet Theatre.
