Tri tra trallala

in the small Museum of Puppet Theatre in Hohnstein an interval sign hangs from the neck of the devil. Since 1928 Kasper (Punch), Grandma and many other characters have every evening drawn viewers to the theatres, Kasper always at the head – not dispensing thrashings with the frying pan but solving problems with sublime wit. For this the Hohnsteiner puppeteers received a gold medal at the 1937 World Exhibition in Paris. Give it up for Kasper!
