The 2nd edition of the Puppet Festival in Querença takes place from September 25 to 27, promoting three days of performances, workshops and community gatherings that connect tradition and contemporary creation at Teatro Dom Roberto. The program includes two world premieres — "A Boy with a Giant Heart", by Argentine Gustavo Núñez "Tuti", and "The Diabolical Barber", starring Adriana Pereira, the only female puppeteer of Teatro Dom Roberto currently active in the Algarve. Various companies present documentaries, new creations and manipulation workshops, while initiatives at the primary school and retirement home seek to involve the local community. An exhibition of Jorge Cerqueira's puppets extends the festival's presence until the end of November.
