Marionette Opera: When puppets perform Swan Lake

In Lindau on Lake Constance there is an opera of a very special kind: here marionettes take the stage. The opera is directed by Bernhard Leismüller. He literally pulls all the strings: every marionette is created by him, from carving it out of wood to dressing it in the hand-sewn costumes. Since Bernhard started the opera, he has made over 400 pieces.

Excellent craftsmanship!
Puppets have been around in Egypt 2000 yrs BC!

These are the most beautiful marionettes I've ever seen. And the way you make them dance is incredible.

I think the lake is called Bodensee. Konstanz is a city there.

Je suis un mec qui aimerait devenir un pantin de bois attaché à des ficelles. L'histoire authentique et inversée de Pinocchio, l'histoire d'un fort désir intérieur. Quel bonheur d'être manipulé pour Toujours entre les mains subtiles d'un Marionnettiste !
