Bambalina Teatre Practicable
The Maese Pedro puppet show (El retablo de Maese Pedro) is one of the most important reference points for the Spanish puppet theatre of the 20th Century. The premiere of this chamber opera for puppets in Paris in 1923 was the result of the collaboration between Manuel de Falla and a small group of Spanish artists all linked to the artistic vanguards. Creative artists as important as García Lorca and Buñuel participated in both the stage conception and in subsequent versions of the work.
