Teater Refleksion is a Danish puppet and animation theatre based in Aarhus, founded in 1990 by actor and puppeteer Bjarne Sandborg, who still serves as its artistic director. The company is known for visually quiet, often wordless performances for children and adults built around handcrafted puppets, set design and animation. Since its founding it has created more than 30 productions and toured widely across Europe as well as in the US, China, Japan and Australia.
Teater Refleksion performed the production 'Night Light' ('I nattens lys') at the Broadway theater New Victory Theater in New York.
The theater received the Lauritzen Foundation's Children's and Youth Prize for its work with puppet and animation theater, one year after the 30th anniversary was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic.
The theater's new production 'See the Darkness' had its premiere in spring 2026 as a sensory journey into the universe of darkness for grades 0-3.
For the new season 2026-2027, Teater Refleksion has put a wide range of productions and workshops on the program for children and adults of all ages.
