Theatre DRAK (CZ): WHAT HAS FEATHERS, FLIES
Everyone surely knows the feeling: the balloon floats in mid-air, we're holding the string and suddenly, it's gone. Rising higher, getting smaller, until it disappears in the sky. What are we to do? Tears won't help. The heroes of this fairytale are in a similar situation. But instead of crying, they go for an expedition to the Planet of Lost Balloons. Several attempts to rise and fly reminds of the fate of the "Wonderful men on flying machines". Will the eternal dream of flying become real? Will the flyers reach their goal - the Planet of Lost Balloons? The original play by Jakub Krofta combines clownery, puppetry and art theatre, stimulates children's fantasy and inspires the youngest viewers to new games. To the endless spaces on the wings of fantasy we go!

Except classical production, the theatre puts emphasis on finding new ways and forms of puppet and alternative theatre.
