22 November at 15:00 in Foredragssalen, Gamle Munch, Tøyen
Oslo Sound-Puppetry Lab 2025 brings together nine musicians, one puppeteer and two visual artists with a shared interest in puppet theatre and musical sound. Together they will create a performance showcasing a newly created music theatre piece that ties together live contemporary music and elements of puppet theatre.
Here, fresh works for varied instrument constellations are shown, where live music meets figures (puppets, objects and abstract figures) controlled by both musicians and puppeteers. The audience will experience the playfulness, listening and expansion of imagination and reality that "sound-puppetry" offers.
The concert will be performed 22 November at 15:00 in Foredragssalen at Gamle Munch (the old Munch museum in Tøyen).
Both younger and older audience members will get the chance to test the puppets together with musicians afterwards, and experience the feeling of puppeteering a sound puppet.
