This morning I saw a woman walk past our window wearing what looked like the top of a fox costume, complete with tail. I’ve heard of furries, but don’t remember seeing one in real life before. I tried to rush upstairs to see if I could get a photo, but no luck. However, once I thought about it a bit more, and remembered that she had a cello with her, I started to think that maybe she isn’t a middle-aged furry, but is a musician taking part in one of the TweeTakt Festival events taking place.
TweeTakt is a youth theater festival that has been going on all week and taken over the Neude square, with all sorts of buildings and farm animal statues going up (as seen above). Banners, flags and signs for the event have been up all over the city for the past couple of weeks, in fact. Not being into youth theater, I can’t tell you much more about it, so I’ll just show you a couple of photos of the signs and banners.

Oh wow that is really cool! I love the banners. I sorta saw a show about Furries..that was, you know..different…LOL
I don’t really know much about furries other than what I’ve come across on Livejournal on occasion, but yeah, different. 😉
Oh, it says Twee Takt! We saw those signs, but couldn’t read them – I was thinking maybe Chinese characters? Bit late for Chinese New Year, though…
To be honest, I had to look it up, too, as I couldn’t read it at first. My thought when I saw some of the street banners was also that it was Chinese New Year, but then realized it was too late for that, and on closer inspection didn’t look like Chinese, either.
