May I just say that I love German puppetry for innumerable reasons…and this is one of them.
In case you’re wondering – and I’m pretty sure that you were – this is a television performance by The Bläck Fööss, a popular German band from Cologne. Although I’m not certain, I believe this style of “foot puppet” was inspired by the work of Anne Klinge, who’s amazing and one of the great German puppeteers you’ll meet in PuppetVision: The Movie.
