Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theater will perform "Twelfth Night
(or What You Will)," the timeless Shakespearean tale of mistaken
identity and misplaced matrimony, as part of La MaMa Puppet Series 3.

This three-tea-tray production, adapted and directed by V=EDt Horej=9A,=20
will feature 16 eight-inch toy marionettes and three (more or less)
live performers.

To tell Shakespeare's tale of twins separated in a shipwreck, the
production will have eight- inch wonders of Czech craftsmen cavorting
on the sands of Illyrian beaches, almost perishing in tumultuous waters=20
teeming with giant fish and turtles, and bathing in champagne at the
court of that paragon of Uptown decadence, Count Orsino.

The lovelorn Count Orsino, the bumbling Toby Belch and his clowny
compadres will be cast with woodenheaded actors.

The waterfalls of wooing words written by William Shakespeare are
adapted by that modern master of Bohemian rhapsodies, Vit Horej=9A.
