The „Gepetto” Puppet Theatre from Arad in Washington DC

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts will be hosting the  
"Gepetto" Puppet Theater from Arad, Romania who will perform "The  
Fellow Traveler" on Wednesday, November 6 from 6:00 pm at the  
Millennium Stage (2700 F Street, NW, Washington, DC).

Based on a tale by Hans Christian Andersen, "The Fellow Traveler"  
(Tovarasul de drum) is a fusion of the art of puppetry and 3D  
technology, using 3D glasses! A young orphan boy, Johan, embarks on a  
journey to find his princess. Armed only with courage and a kind  
heart, Johan -- accompanied by a fellow traveler -- faces many tests  
before finally reaching his goal.

The "Gepetto" Puppet Theatre from Arad, Romania is a private theater  
company and the first in the world using multimedia and showing  
stereoscopic 3D images scrolling across a transparent screen. Behind  
the screen the "story" unfolds with puppets wielded by the performing  
artists.

The "The Fellow Traveler" show is part of the "The Kids Euro Festival  
2013" which will take place in Washington, DC between October 16 and  
November 13, 2013. The Festival includes almost 250 free performances,
