Sažetak

The paper examines selected contemporary puppet theater transpositions of picturebooks in order to explore the connections between picturebooks and puppet theater, focusing on how transformed verbal-visual elements of picturebooks are manifested in puppet plays. The starting point are common characteristics of picturebooks and puppet plays, such as the multimodal nature of picturebooks – the synthesis of various art forms as a component of puppet plays. The analysis is informed by Milan Čečuk’s thesis (2009) that picturebook expression is evident in multiple ways in puppet plays, which the author interprets as animated three-dimensional picturebooks. In all the analyzed puppet plays, the narrative progression and visual expression of the picturebook are retained in ways that enhance stage dynamics. Additionally, the transformation of verbal and visual discourses of picturebook templates into components of puppet plays is reflected in the pictorial sequencing of scenes.
