Czech puppet theater has been very popular in Japan for a long time, and interest in it grew even more in 2016, when Czech and Slovak puppetry was added to the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage.

"An adventurous puppet comedy with a minimum of words, but a lot of action and live music. The creators of the production - Liberec dramaturge and playwright Mr. Vít Peřina and Alfa Theater director Mr. Tomáš Dvořák - were loosely inspired by Johnston McCulley's book ´The Mark of Zorro´ and its film adaptations, especially the film of the same name from 1920 with Douglas Fairbanks in the lead role." - Alfa Theater

The puppet comedy "Watch out, Zorro!" won the hearts of the Japanese audience, who praised the actors and musicians with long applause after both performances at the Embassy. We thank the performers for a beautiful and fun experience!
