Richard Bradshaw's Shadowtheater
Richard Bradshaw’s Shadowtheater
By Werner Nekes, 2004,
English/German, 60 min.
When both children and grown-ups laugh about the same thing it cannot be without good reason. That it is at all possible, is delightfully demonstrated by the Australian Richard Bradshaw with his One-Man-Shadowtheater. Bradshaw is, like Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin or Jacques Tati, one of the few great players in the world of kind-hearted humour. Jim Henson, the creator of the legendary muppet-show, adored him arid tried to solve the mystery of his wit. With the simplest means of media like light, silhouettes and shadows, accompanied by live singing and a few words, he astonishes and enchants his audience.
