This puppet-show takes place on the comedian's cart which will become for a moment a queen's bower, then a thick dark forest and finally a little cottage with seven little beds, a table and benches for the dwarfs. The show is lively thanks to the rhythmical songs with the catchy refrain which the public sing together with the actors. The show will not lack humour and which is more important love which will overcome death.
Teatr Viti Marcíka was set-up in the village of Drahotešice. A strolling theatre which is based on the expressive charisma of Víta Marcík, a stage director, scenarist, actor, musician… In the highlight is not only the creation of an alternative puppet-show but the use of all means available to establish contact and relationships with the spectator. The performances are full of the typical humour and wisdom of the folk narrator Marcík. They have received a lot of prizes in several festivals in the Czech Republic and abroad.
