Puppet of the week

Some say he looks like spaghetti. Some call him a hairball. (Well he is practically a hairball... ) Some don't trust him, some want to cuddle him endlessly... I am talking about Jos. A muppet who comes from the US and has definitely the most charming American look.


Jos is a heartbroken young man (I mean, human man) but one morning he wakes up and he realizes that he is a fluffy puppet. Nobody knows why. His best friend Najib is totally frightened but at some point they will find some way to work it out and together they'll seek for adventures. 


If everything goes well, the Belgian public might see a show about Jos and his friend soon on television. And this one isn't for small children. But until than, there has to be still a lot of work done. (like rolling on a floor or so...)  


And here's the handsome crew: Fabrice, Jakob, Jos, Aziz, Wesley and Jan. (Kris -the real human Jos is missing. And I was also supposed to be on a picture... have I mentioned that I was the puppet's hands?) Anyway, it was fun, especially being stuck under the table or elsewhere:) 
Good luck, Jos, hope you make the show run!

recommendations of the last month

Shortly before leaving to Vienna for the Kukulutour, we managed to go see one movie at the Film festival in Ghent. We picked The Selfish Giant a British film by Clio Barnard. (Of course we had no idea, who she is.) But not only that the director was personally there and she introduced us a bit into the topic before the film, we could also ask a few questions after the movie. But as everyone was deeply moved after watching, not so many questions were asked. And you know what? The movie won!! So it's not just my subjective recommendation ;) Find the trailer here.

My recommendation number two is: Let yourself be portrayed by children. Look what happened in Vienna. This is me by three different kids, seeing me playing the show about Mia and her talking handkerchief at the very same time :) I just love the way my hairstyle changes... 




Recommendation number three: Go to puppet theatre! 
There has been done a new show by theater Froe Froe together with theater Tieret, both from Belgium. It's called Labyrint and it's a "VJ - acting - 3D - concert with all the masters of the puppetry". I am sooo curious :) They are going to be tripping around Belgium, so you better check out the play list HERE
