Pro Helvetia - The Swiss Arts Council and India Habitat Centre bring to Delhi the puppet performance ‘Mimi and Brumm’. Margrit Gysin, the grand dame of Swiss puppeteers, tells a story based on a picture book by Gabrielle Vincent. The story revolves around a mouse named Mimi and a bear called Brumm, both of whom are so tiny that they can live inside a book. The puppeteer knocks at the cover and the characters magically pop out. The trials and tribulations of these petite characters and their struggles seem to mimic human life.


‘Mimi and Brumm’, 21 and 22 July, India Habitat Centre, Lodhi Road, New Delhi. For more information, visit prohelvetia.org
