MOŽ! sit with me

MOŽ! Sit with me is a miniature puppet theatre and the show is about an old man being alone in the room and he starts to wonder. (Tea Kovše)

MOŽ! sit with me

autobiographical puppet show

"My parents always told me that my grandfather was nervous. After more than 20 years, I discovered he was suffering from a mental illness called organic delusional disorder. It was difficult for me to understand his perception of the world. That's why the Miniature puppet theatre MOŽ! is dedicated to all the beautiful and crazy minds in the world."

(by Tea Kovše)

I am an old man. I am living alone and never leave my home. In my solitude, I fall in love with a lamp and confront my own fears.

​

My biography is based on short stories: Metamorphosis (Franz Kafka), Tju (Slavko Grum) and the true story of Tea's grandfather. He is a 79 years old ex-coal miner diagnosed with organic delusional disorder.
