We're firmly entrenched in summer now. It's hot like a sauna, so we spend almost all day inside and go out for walks around 8:00 when it starts to cool off. Tonight we're going to see some puppet theater in the Retiro (huge park here in Madrid). They have it all summer long, so we try to go as much as we can. And who can resist children's events that start at 10pm--Madrid in the summer is really something else.
Last week Oscar and I saw one by Teatro Tartana where they brought two Picasso paintings to life. I wish I had taken pictures--pretty much every children's puppet show here has at least some naked puppets, but this one took the cake with its giant blue woman with enormous dangling breasts and a really powerful depiction of the idea of war. Oscar loved it. It really was well done. I have a feeling it will be forever embedded in his (and my) subconscious.
Joie de vivre
War
more about them
Afterwards, they had a little portable shed with three "peepshows" where you put in a coin and they showed you a short movie. They were all based on issues of immigration. Interesting stuff.
We're off for tonight's show--El Sastrecillo Valiente (the brave little tailor).
