The puppet theater has traditionally been a neglected form of popular literature in Europe,considered a minor form and left out of any cultural considerations. However, it is an art form that hasoften characterized by its ability to satire, mockery, transgression and contestation of political or religiousauthority. The recovery of puppet theater for adults and its presence in the audiovisual world are twoexamples of the present and the future of this theatrical form.
