Teater Refleksion creates poetic and imaginative theatre performances for children and adults alike. Puppets are a central and very important part of every performance. The performances are simple in their expression but with a great sense of detail in both puppeteering and in the set design. They use little or no language at all. Instead music, images and of course the puppets convey the stories. The performances often deal with the condition of being human like the importance of friendship or in having to face your fears, giving the performances a truly universal appeal.
”Theatre at its most intense, magical and entertaining best, revolving around the greater things in life.”

AVAILABLE WORKS 2015 – 2016
PARADISE
2015 / co-produced with Teatret De Røde Heste (DK)
Well, sorry – this is actually not a story about Paradise but about a somewhat sad undertaker. Paradise is just something the undertaker comes up with to comfort a little girl who died far too soon.
But maybe it’s true. Maybe there is such a thing as PARADISE?
“… a successful cocktail of joint artistic forces in the super league of Danish storytelling and puppet theatre”
