Me and the Puppet Theatre: A Subjective Report on the Puppet Theatre of Cluj

Summary/Abstract: In the summer and autumn of 2020, there was a wide debate in the Transylvanian press around the Puck Puppet Theatre of Cluj, which has a Romanian as well as a Hungarian department, owing to the fact that some of the former directors of the Hungarian departmenthave expressed their dissatisfaction with the repeated gestures, considered to be exclusionary, of the Romanian general director of the theatre. Related to this case, our author, Réka Hegyi evokes her past experiences related to the puppet theatre of Cluj, which she had as an employee of the institution, at the literary secretariat, and also as a puppet theatre critic. According to her, the Puck Puppet Theatre has always been troubled by serious problems. At the same time, the author expresses her hope that the Hungarian puppet theatre company will be able to raise its activity within the institution to a superior professional level and to give it a more pleasant atmosphere, because, in any case, the children deserve this, and as a result, puppet theatre shows of a higher quality.
