Make it so they don’t know where to look, Writer. Make them dizzy.
Helmut Vaag, on the performance of his play Reinuvader Rebane (Cunning Fox):
“The extent of Ferdinand Veike’s imagination makes you dizzy. His puppet show takes up the whole wide stage. Until now, the stage of a puppet show has been four metres in width; Ferdinand Veike, however, makes use of as much as ten metres and perhaps would have used more, had the size of the room allowed it. He staged the play in a way that had the performance going on in three different points at once, so that the audience did not know where to look.”
