Réka Deák

I'm Réka Deák puppeteer.

 

While I tried to spread theater I worked with people from different ages, in different circumstances: refugee camps, foundation with excellent facilities, associations for special needs children, orphanages and schools.
Since I'm a puppeteer I'm trying to get involved in all creative process. I found my way in puppetry and this means acting, designing puppets, directing and leading puppetry workshops for all kind of interested people.
