Sandglass Theater will present Puzzle Théâtre’s "Bois" (Woods) at the 2024 Puppets in the Green Mountains International Festival: Just Around the Bend. "Bois" is a humorous and inspiring performance that utilizes natural materials as object theater in a colorful performance of unexpected situations. “Bois” is a remarkable work of playful object manipulation as puppeteers Csaba Raduly and Pavla Mano joyfully bring to life a multitude of wooden pieces of various sizes that they have collected across beaches and forests. The stage is set with a pile of branches and eyes because according to Puzzle Théâtre: everywhere, everything sees. The pieces of wood are brought together by the artists to form strange creatures, some hostile, some comical, to form a curious world that surprises, amazes, and inspires. This is a wordless show for family audiences that celebrates the innate life of natural materials; especially important in our region as we are resettling many new international residents.
