Figure Organizing Puppet Theater

A puppet theatre workshop stands ready before a show. Marionettes hang in a row from their crossbars above the stage — a princess, a knight, a bearded king, a green-gowned woman and a jester — with more waiting on a rail at the right. The stage itself is set: teal curtains drawn back, painted flats of pine forest and a pink castle on a hillside, footlights along a purple deck. Shelves at the left hold labelled boxes of props, costumes and masks, folded fabrics in bright colours, hats and carnival masks on hooks. A pegboard of tools, paint pots and rope fills the right wall above a workbench. A stagehand crouches at an orange crate of masks. The harlequin floor and painted backdrops keep every zone in its own colour and shape.
