About the performance
In 1967, our Puppet Theatre produced a legendary show for adults: "Interlellis-67" (“Interdoll-67”), which gained huge popularity, won the All-Union Theatre Display and attracted full venues.
What would it take for Puppet Theatre to reach the same heights today? What would we have to do to make audiences wait anxiously for the latest tickets and queues to form at the box office on Barona Street all the way to Vērmanes Garden? How can we get adults to stop being surprised that puppet theatre is not just for children, and critics to keep their fingers crossed that they can write reviews about us? What was the secret of the success of Interlellis-67, and who was Tīna Hercberga, the director of the show and an unsurpassed legend in puppet theatre circles, while outside our narrow theatre community her name rings out more quietly and less often than, for example, names of Smiļģis, Jaunušans or Kroders? In this anniversary season, we will engage in introspection and search for answers to existential questions of the puppet world, like alchemists trying to unravel the mystery of the legendary play.
