A show of magic, objects and puppets without words.


A parody of magic or an innovative way to do magic, this time with little people, one’s hands performing the discipline without realising. Escapism, mentalism, handling large apparatuses…all on a small scale.

A show for wondering and being seduced by the charms of one of the oldest, most eternal arts.


The fifth edition of the Encamp Puppets Festival, that finalized yesterday, offered Saturday the active participation of the puppeteer Teia Moner.Besides to supervise two workshops during afternoon, the artist offered, at night, the only spectacle of the contest thought for adult audience, MINIMAL MAGIC.

The assembly consists of a combination to equal parts of puppets and magic, without let to parody at any moment some of the great magic numbers:escapism, games of cords and hoops, levitation or the disquieting trick of the guillotine – with a tragicomic way- they are the wire of the spectacle.

Teia Moner demonstrated during the representation her absolute mastery of an art in simple appearance but that at heart is full of subtleties, and, in this case - by the fact that the proposal was not directed to the infantile public of an ironic language that gives multiplicity of readings.

USED RESOURCES SUCCESSFULLY
Therefore, Moner used with total masters those own resources of the theatre of puppets.Between these, it is possible to observe the dynamism when changing radically of elements and protagonists from a number to another one, the mutual understanding between the action of the personages and music - leitmotiv unquestionable of the show -, or the interaction of the puppeteer with the dolls and these with the hearing.
