TARANEYA Theatre was created in 1.981 in Spain .
Its director is Jesús Benedicto Dumall ( Toy ).
We have
produced more than 20 different shows with a
variety of technics such the glove puppets,
marionettes, rod puppets, and even the
sophisticate japanesse Kuruma-Ningyo whose
master Ruigi Nishikawa had teached us.
In
1.987 we made the coproduction Don Quijote with
the swedish Marionettheater of Stockholm , regie
by Michael Meschke .
We have study with many masters of puppetry like
Athanas Ilkov from Bulgaria and U Pan Aye from
Myanmar. But we have learned much more from the
public…
Since 1.995 we organize the programme Puppets on
the road , in which have been performing more
than 80 puppetthatre troups from all around the
world.
Our international activity is one of the most
important. We have been performing in many
countries like Sweden , Bulgaria , Philippines ,
Japan , South Korea , Thailand , Argentina ,
México , Equator , Belgium , Italy , Hungary ,
Myanmar ,…
Our show called The Globetrotter has got the
third price in the International Puppettheatre
Festival in Békèscsaba (Hungary )
In the last ten years we have developed a great
work with puppet masters in South-East Asia. As
a result of this work we set up de exhibition
TARANEYA COLLECTION , South-east Asian Puppets ,
with more than 200 puppets made by big puppet
masters in each country.
