Transport: CargoPuppetry performance, length 40 min

  15+
Transport: Cargo shows the urgent problem of increasing road freight transport. The performance subtly raises moral and ethical questions about the value and responsibility of human beings in the context of insatiable hyper-consumerism.

The production is the first in a series of Creative Europe's Transport project by Slovenian director Tin Grabnar, which brings together six theatres from Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania, the Czech Republic and Poland for the 2024/2025 season. The common starting point of the cross-genre performances, which are structurally and thematically interwoven, is the issue of transport as one of the most important foundations of globalisation.

The performances are underscored by hyper-realistic miniature visualisations and complex soundscapes that involve the audience in an intimate confrontation with the pressing issues of contemporary society.


Co-produced by Lutkovno gledališče Ljubljana (Slovenia), Maribor Puppet Theatre (Slovenia), Alfa Theatre (Czech Republic), Eesti Noorsooteater (Estonia), Klaipėda Puppet Theatre (Lithuania), Białystok Puppet Theatre (Poland)

The Maribor Puppet Theatre became a professional theatre in the 1974/75 season. It puts on performances for children and adults, organises the annual Summer Puppet Pier and hosts the most important national puppet festival, which is held every two years by the Foundation of Slovenian Puppeteers. It performs in Slovenia and abroad. The theatre is located in the renovated Minorite monastery in Maribor.
