The House by the Lake

The House by the Lake is a performance by Yael Rasooly and Yaara Goldring that swings between the boundaries of musical cabaret and contemporary puppetry for adults.

The House by the Lake is part of the Pop up Puppets international festival at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern, August 18-21 2022.

A cabaret singer, haunted by her unspeakable memories, tells the story of three sisters. Forced to hide in a tiny cold room, waiting for their mother to return, the sisters do their best to preserve a shadow of the life they once knew. While reality is falling apart, their bodies come together with pieces of broken dolls, creating a fantastic and absurd world. In this original and creative play, humor and tragedy are woven together, forming an overwhelming theatrical experience.

Adults, from 15 years.

The House by the Lake is presented by Kulturhuset Stadsteatern, Jewish culture in Sweden and The Embassy of Israel in Sweden.

Thank you to Kulturrådet, Stockholms stad and Region Stockholm.

Special thanks to Hans Bagner & Eva Meyersohn and their newly established company Art & Law for sponsoring this event.
