COMPANY
Trukitrek is a theatre company that combines gestural theatre with the fascinating world of puppetry. Founded on the island of Minorca in 1998, its members came from diverse artistic backgrounds, which enriched the company's scenic proposal from the very beginning. Throughout its trajectory, Trukitrek has achieved international recognition, taking its art to 35 countries around the world.
Trukitrek's shows are multidisciplinary works that fuse theatre and animated film. This combination creates an immersive theatrical experience that sparks the imagination and excites people of all ages. Puppets come to life on stage, interacting with actors and cartoons, transporting the audience to a universe where fantasy meets reality.
The company is distinguished by its free style and has worked with various techniques in the creation of its shows, from classical string puppets to direct manipulation puppets. It is worth mentioning the "humanette" style, where the characters are half puppet, half human. In relation to the animations incorporated in his shows, Trukitrek stands out for his focus on traditional techniques and artisanal methods, which gives a distinctive touch to this fascinating fusion between theatre and cinema.
