There is also a tradition, albeit relatively rare today in Germany, of
Kasperletheater using stringed marionettes. (The Augsburger
Peppenkisten, for example, plays Kasperle as a marionette; in the Czech
tradition, Kasparek is usually a marionette). This is usually a
professional practice and c
"Kaspertheater" or "Kasperletheater" is a puppet show with small dolls
wrapped around the players hand, what means three of his fingers move head
and the two arms of the puppet. It's a very famous childrens game, maybe
found in every home of german families.
