For the third time, puppet art days were held in Eger. One of the special features of HaNeKoNa was that it became a thematic festival: almost half of the performances were based on similar techniques in which the human body and the puppet form a symbiosis. For the first time, foreign artists were also invited. The Belova-Iacobelli Company, made up of Brazilian and Russian-Belgian artists, and Duda Paiva were guest artists in 2021. The most important contribution of the Eger Puppet Days was that five performances presented different displays of one technique. The essence of this technique is that the actor-puppeteer and his more or less human-sized puppet form such a close relationship that, on occasion, the body of the human and the puppet can be physically linked. András Éry-Kovács has been running the Harlequin Puppet Theatre for almost a decade. Looking through the list of premieres during his reign, we can see that the performances are not only aimed at children, but also systematically include youth and adult productions, including Shakespeare adaptations and musical works. Attendance at the festival has shown that the company's efforts have been successful. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
