Behind the scenes
It is true that this story goes back a long time. Indeed, the manufacture of puppets took place in the last century (year 1985), in a single copy, in the United Kingdom. This is why the maintenance of automated circuits is sometimes laborious! For example, a magician can no longer make his assistant disappear or a gorilla hangs on his bike or a monkey no longer dances salsa… In short, it is not uncommon for engines to make their own in this circus! But the creator of the park, Guy, ensures repairs. It is therefore with a watchmaker’s hand that, patiently, he revives the automaton and even sometimes creates new movements.
