Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre (CAMT), under the direction of Vit Horejs, performs FOWL PLAY, an original puppet rock opera inspired by Farid us-Din Attar’s 12th century Sufi poem “The Conference of the Birds,” as re-told by contemporary illustrator and author, Peter Sis. In the story, a flock of birds seek their leader in vain. Performers will portray the birds on their quest over mountain ranges, through deserts and forests. Puppets, objects and costumes will be designed in the style of Sis's colorful illustrations; and include feather boas, scarves, flags, flowers, banknotes, traffic tickets, dry leaves, newspapers, political and sales flyers, plastic bags, cans & bottles.

CAMT is dedicated to the preservation and presentation of traditional and not-so-traditional puppetry. The company has played in 37 US states and festivals in Poland, Turkey, Pakistan, Korea and the Czech Republic; and is a resident company at La MaMa.
