Teater Refleksion endeavours to produce theatre of the highest quality – in terms of both content and expression.  The use of puppets and animation onstage, with the puppet as principal object and medium, is the company’s defining attribute. The themes of their work, often existential, are explored in a peaceful, concentrated and immediate atmosphere, creating a space in which children and adults can immerse themselves. The goal is to inspire, challenge and encourage the audience to embrace the challenges which face them in a world which, at times, can be complicated and unmanageable – and to deal with them with competence and meaning. This is done by addressing the senses as well as the intellect, and by encouraging an open and curious mind, ready to relate and eager for experience – just as we see in children.

Today the company has an artistic profile which can be described as unique…The Arts Council considers Teater Refleksion to be a meaningful and important player among the country’s children’s theatres. Not only because they are a puppet theatre, and an outstanding one at that, but also, and especially, because their performances are of high artistic quality… Teater Refleksion’s limitations are tough to spot.
