Internationally renowned artist Phillip Huber comes to La Puntual to present his acclaimed puppet show "Suspended Animation".
With it, Phillip Huber controls incredibly convincing characters through a series of variety vignettes that reveal humour, pathos, drama and grace.
The cloth and wooden figures come to life as they mimic classic vaudeville turns, acts designed in the best circus tradition worldwide, instrumentalists, celebrity portraits and witty contemporary performers.
Each puppet personality is developed through detailed and highly refined characterisation, carefully choreographed puppeteer-puppet interaction and tour de force manipulation. Fantasy is imbued with a sense of reality; imagination becomes animation in real time.
This is a show, which employs subtle artistry to touch the innocence within us all... An entertainment that makes you "smile with your heart".
