Here are some quotes about the last Puppet Festival in 2007:
“They say puppets are also for adults at Copenhagen Puppet Festival. I should say so! You have to be fairly adult to take it” Dagbladet Information
“When you think of puppet theatre, you imagine something traditional, where the most technical thing about it is a piece of string. Copenhagen´s very first international puppet theatre festival should put an end to such misconceptions” Copenhagen Post
“A surprising success” Jyllands Posten
”As guest speaker I had the pleasure of visiting the Copenhagen Puppet Festival in 2007. A little gem set in the heart of Copenhagen. The organisers who were very welcoming to audience and participants alike had managed to put together a varied programme and at the same time brought together several key players from the European puppet scene. So I was quite surprised to discover that it was the first time the festival took place. To me it seemed like it was all they had ever done.” Lucille Bodson, director Institut International de la Marionette, Charleville-Mézières, France. The institute is amongst the worlds leading research centres and schools for puppettheatre.
