The Puppet Theatre A Tarumba is a professional Portuguese theatre company from Lisbon, established by Luís Vieira in Rute Ribeiro in 1993. It brings together artists from different fields of art: theatre, cinema, sculpture, dance, etc. The same year, the FIMFA Lx International Festival of Animated forms was conceived, which was awarded by the Portuguese Association of Theatre Critics in 2010. Through various workshops and with the creation of their production, they are bending artistic standards in the field of puppetry in Portugal. Their performances and installations repeatedly question modern forms of puppetry.
