Last autumn I created a group of shadow puppets for the telling of a contemporary fairytale and finally, in May, was able to see the end result performance at a theatre near my home in Nantes. The shadow show is part of a larger work entitled "Les Fabuleuses Histoires du Fabularium", a charming piece full of humour and accordion music performed by Les Aretes du Biftek troupe:

Below is the princess character minus her control rods...
She is beloved of the wolf, a dandified fellow who in some ways might not be all bad, although still obsessed with harassing pigs...
Here they are in performance...
And we all hope they lived happily ever after...
Or in the meanwhile at least had a very good time...
