Puppeteers of America
Check out Hamlet Isn't Dead on March 26th: https://www.hamletisntdead.com/
Dream of Hamlet is a modern interpretation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet told through the classical stylings of Turkish shadow puppetry. In this show, the Anatolian puppet theatre Karagöz, a living tradition with 700 years of history, brings a modernist approach to the British playwright Shakespeare’s signature play by reconstructing its characters and theme in an entirely different context. The show is directed by Ayhan Hulagu, performed by Amy Liou and Jordon Waters.

It was wonderful has been at the Mayo Street Arts in Portland. We have performed to the 'The Forest of the Witch'. That was fascinating experience for us to be here. We are adapting to Karagoz to the United States. That's why we are using many popular figures and icons in the show. Today we use the dragon of the Game of Thrones at the classic Karagoz show. It got many reactions at the show. That was the honor to be Maine. We are going to back again.

Karagoz Theatre Company was founded by Ayhan Hulagu in Washington, D.C., in the United States, in 2017. The company, pioneered by actor and writer Hulagu, is known most for its special interest and shows especially in traditional arts at the international scale. The company devotes special attention to Karagoz, which is in the list of Unesco Intangible Cultural Heritage and dating back nearly 700 years in Anatolia, meddah (the Anatolian art of storytelling), classical plays and experimental theater. In doing so, Hulagu has used the company as a moving platform to display performances around the world. Already, the company has succeeded to reach a wide-ranging audience in several parts of the world.
