Love outlasting the grave. Or rather going into the grave. A series of variations on the biggest love story of all time dressed in a cabaret array. Comic series, songs, gags, LOVE. Fagi is a comic book phenomenon on the rise (a 13-year-old girl giving comments on the world around her, this time against the backdrop of the great Elizabethan writer). “O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? O Juliet, Juliet, wherefore art thou Juliet? O Fagi, Fagi, wherefore art thou Fagi?”


DNO Theatre is an independent alternative puppet theatre company lacking a permanent scene. The DNO Theatre was established in 2000 by a group of actors, musicians and artists from Hradec Králové, East Bohemia. Since 2004, the theatre has had the status of a civic association providing for various theatre, music and visual art projects. Since its origination, the DNO Theatre has produced over 25 theatre and music projects and participated at many festivals in the Czech Republic (Puppet Chrudim, Přelet nad loutkářským hnízdem, Divadlo evropských regionů, Ostrovy-Islands…) and Europe (PUF – Slovenia, Bábkarská Bystrica – Slovakia, Eger – Hungary). The DNO Theatre combines puppets, old toys, hi technologies, live music in non-traditional puppet performances.
