Two strands of the programme, ''Puppet Contact Dance''' and '''Shadow Dance''', combine puppetry and body movement, and are based on methods conceived and developed by Vravnik and Kovše. Both strands are supported financially by the [[Ministry of Culture]]. Two further strands of the programme, again developed by the founders themselves, are aimed specifically at children. The theatre works closely with schools around Slovenia, with its education programmes also forming part of the [[Zlata Paličica]] online platform designed to bring young audiences into contact with high-quality theatre content. | ||
