LA CIENCIA REGRESSA A LA CANCHA
Teatro Milix presesnts:
“BRASIL, BRASILEIRO, TITIRITEIRO”
Today, 14th June 2014 at 2.30pm local time
Teatro Milix “La cienca regresa a la cancha” – my Spanish isn’t good enough to know what this actually means but my guess is that it’s something poetic about it being time to take everything they’ve learned in training out of the classroom and onto the football field.

BRAZIL/ From Brazil itself, though currently the centre of the known universe, there has been little topical puppetry news except for a parade last weekend featuring giant footballer puppets in Rio promoting Hepatitis awareness. You can read more (in Portuguese) here:
