BURGELE

Synopsis: 

In the puppeteers garden puppets don’t miss anything – they dance, sing, play and laugh as they like. There is only one thing puppets can’t and mustn’t do: move out of this garden trying to reach one of the forbidden fruits. But for Burgele, relative of world famous Pulcinella, no ban seriously exists, so once it happens: With the help of the snake she takes the red apple! Suddenly things just change - Conflicts and death make their appearance and have to be combated.

The a-temporal Pulcinella is here a female figure, her name „Burgele“ is taken from a mysterious alpine Carnival-figure (Tramin/I).
