Established as the Papilu Theatre Group in 1982 (renamed in 2005), Papelito Puppet Theatre is the vehicle for the work of Brane Solce. The starting point of the theatre's performances, which are based on sound and music and presented mostly without text, is paper, material that offers lots of possibilities of transformation. The performances use the rich visual language of metaphors and symbols facilitated by idiosyncratic two-dimensional puppets and are full of wit and humour.


Papelito Puppet Theatre has thus far created over 30 performances. Its adaptations of Slovene children's poems (An ban, Najdihojca), and small-scale productions like Grumbling [Brundarija], Collage [Kolaž], Paper Horror Show, Rubbishmouse [Miška smetiška] have been successful both at home and abroad, in places as far afield as Israel, Japan, and the USA. Since 2000, Solce is also active in the field of film animation. He was awarded best independent author award for his cartoon Rubbishmouse, produced by Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia), at the Izolanima - Slovene Animation Festival. Solce received a special jury award for puppetry technique at the 2009 Slovene Puppetry Biennial.

Papelito Puppet Theatre also organises workshops for children.
