Paper Show Company

The Paper Show Company is a collective of creative minds from diverse disciplines, centered around book artist and live illustrator Robert Nippoldt and singer Lotta Stein. Using camera and large-scale projection, they present stage productions that combine live drawing, music, and acting. With paper cutouts, colors, paper elements, text panels, and hand puppets, they animate and comment on their scenes through music and words — bringing handmade scenarios, live animations, and visual journeys to life.

»With its unique combination of live drawing, music, and performance, the Paper Show Company has created an entirely new genre:
analog multimedia shows, paced like TikTok and Instagram, yet crafted with the handmade means and poetry of silent film.«
