In Syracuse, Sicily, in the heart of the historic center of Ortigia, is the handicraft workshop of puppeteer Daniel Mauceri. Daniel and his family carry on the ancient tradition of Sicilian puppetry. Many shows have been staged over the years and many puppets have been made, some of which can be found in private homes and museums in Italy and abroad. Over the years, the experience acquired has allowed them to perfect each individual creation and to enrich the family heritage with all the figures present in the Carolingian cycle: knights, magicians, dragons, ladies, monstrous creatures... This site shows the work of an outstanding craftsman and his family.
