Subject: Re: PUPT: Puppets in Spain


Christine:

Go to : www.titerenet.com. This is a resource for spanish-speaking 
puppeteers. If the language is a bit of a barrier, look for and go to 
the button "Compañías" on the left hand side, and then click 
"Directorio." It will give you a listing of puppet companies in 
multiple countries, including several in Madrid, Barcelona, and 
elsewhere. They are listed alphabetically, so you'll have to browse, 
but you shouldn't have any trouble finding contact info (and 
sometimes web pages).

Most of these have an e-mail address if you'd like to contact them 
and ask about upcoming shows.
