The protagonists of this story are the children, the children of the great puppets of tradition, who spend the summer playing under a bridge because no one can afford a vacation. However, on a sultry summer afternoon, boredom gives way to adventure, and fantasy transforms the everyday into something extraordinary. Inspired by François Truffaut’s poetic gaze on childhood, Summer Tale is a delicate and entertaining show that celebrates play, friendship, and the children’s ability to imagine new worlds.

The Hypnotic Medical Theatre is one of the most original and authoritative realities of contemporary Italian figure theatre. Through a refined puppet art theatre, the company creates shows capable of speaking to children and adults with the same intensity, returning to puppets all their poetic strength.
Summer Tale celebrates fantasy as the ability to transform reality and to find possibilities where adults see only normality. A small poetic gem capable of speaking to children while still moving adults.
