With a script and score by the gloriously witty Guus Ponsioen, Michel Tournier's deep little story of a lovelorn baker's moonlit travails proves a wicked romantic comedy in an hour-long adaptation from Holland's Speeltheater. Perô the baker and Columbina the laundress – moonfaced puppets all in white – live side by side in narrow cottages in the village of Fanghetto. Manipulating them, the flesh-and-blood performers Inez de Bruijn and Tim Velraeds are a feisty pair, who find each other irresistible while having their puppet character's interests at heart. Overseeing all of this is another mismatched couple – the sun (Annemarie Maas) and the moon (Ponsioen), who sit at pianos, sing and fling insults at each other.
