Premiering in November, this virtual puppet performance is a co-production of Mini Theatre Ljubljana and the Slovenj Gradec Cultural Hall as part of the ECOC MARIBOR 2012. Years ago, the Castle Hall in Murska Sobota witnessed another enthralling virtual puppet performance Palčica (The Little Elf), also by Mini Theatre. The performance was a combination of computer animation and classical puppet theatre. The Little Sleepy Star, a legendary fairy tale created sixty years ago and a staple among many generations, was directed by Robert Waltl.
