I burattini napoletani di Gaspare Nasuto

"The original, authentic and inimitable Neapolitan Pulcinella"
Five centuries of Neapolitan puppets melt together to give birth to the work of our Company: the timbering of puppets finely carved in walnut-wood and cherry-tree wood, the precise handling of the puppet-show, the use of "PIVETTA" and the movement's fine art make the shows of Gaspare Nasuto (one of the most important authors and players of Pulcinella's mask in the world) full of strong emotion and magic.
"The ancient tradition of Pulcinella"
Gaspare Nasuto starts his activity in 1989; puppeteer and sculptor, is considered as one of the Masters of neapolitan puppet tradition, a true tipping point for whoever wants to approach the secrets of the neapolitan "Guarattelle".
Neapolitan "Guarattelle"
are an ancient kind of puppet used as a glove created in Naples around the 16th century. The peculiarity of the show is the voice of Pulcinella obtained with the "PIVETTA", an instrument hold by the puppeteer under his palat during the show. Moreover, a striking and exclusive technique of movements of the puppets and a performing power give a
strong modernity to the show.
