As in the past, Tirijai (Tolosa’s International Puppetry Festival) will dedicate this edition--from November 28th to December 6th--to the puppetry of a specific country. During this 27th edition we will open our doors to Quebec in order to admire and enjoy their puppets and performances. Claude Fleury, the Director of the Quebec Office in Barcelona, and María Jesús Bronchal, the Quebec cultural attaché, visited Tolosa in order to learn about Tolosa’s projected International Puppetry Centre and to check out the progress on the new premises where TOPic will be located.


The visit was long and intense, and both visitors seemed impressed by the solidity and planning of the project. However, what most impressed them is the integral nature of the project which permits a vision of the world of puppetry from very different perspectives. In the opinion of the representatives from Quebec, these characteristics are what make the TOPic Centre so singular.
