As they write, Hello, Heracles! it addresses teenagers with its exciting visual world, with its special musical world created with visual effects and a modular synthesizer.
István Tasnádi wrote a new piece from the myth of Heracles, which, through the story of the legendary hero and ordinary mortal half-brother Iphicles, uses the tools of mythology, but speaks of courage, selection and brotherly love in today’s children’s language.
The Tik-Tok side of the performance was launched by the Puppet Theater to bring the puppet genre as close as possible to this age group.
The announcement emphasizes that the collaboration between Budapest Puppet Theater and Pagony Publishing House is not new; The tales process the everyday life of a family of foxes endowed with human qualities. Their protagonist, Babaróka, is three years old at the beginning of the story and is just getting ready for kindergarten. The charming and humorous stories are all about a familiar conflict and its resolution in a circle organized: family frictions, poetry, the birth of a little brother. The tale takes simple and yet complex questions as a young child seriously, it wants to show how the world is slowly opening up for a little fox – read the description of the lecture.
The next stop of the collaboration with Pagonny will be the performance Kisrigók at the end of October. Paulon Viktória’s story entitled Kisrigók is directed by Károly Hoffer. The performance for elementary schoolchildren and their families is the writer’s personally motivated story, the imaginative private mythology of his adopted children, interwoven with fabulous elements, about which Dóra Gimesi adapted to the stage.
