giant marionettes!

[ from clementine ReflectionOf.Me ] Woah! What a crazy, cool street installation! Earlier this week, 1.5 million people filled the streets of Berlin, Germany to watch the "The Berlin Reunion", a performance by France's Royal de Luxe street theatre company that lasted a few days. The show commemorated the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The Reunion show featured two massive marionettes, the Big Giant, a deep-sea diver, and his niece, the Little Giantess. The storyline of the performance has the two separated by a wall, thrown up by "land and sea monsters". The Big Giant has just returned from a long and difficult - but successful - expedition to destroy the wall, and now the two are walking the streets of Berlin, seeking each other after many years apart.
