The Play of Puppetry
by Chad Dembski
A brand new French translation of Old Trout Theatre Workshop’s Ignorance is playing at the experimental venue Espace Libre, but only until Saturday the 19th.
Old Trout Theatre Workshop are from Calgary, Alberta and are an original creation puppet company who have been making very popular work since 1999. Ignorance was recently at the Canadian Stage company in November and December of 2012 and was originally created at the Banff Centre for performing arts. I have heard about the company for many years and their most famous piece - Famous Puppet Death Scenes - was presented at the 2007 FTA festival, and Espace Libre presented The Erotic Anguish of Don Juan in 2009.
