Obraztsov Puppet Theatre (Teatr Kukol imeni Obraztsova)

Description:

• For the first five years of its existence, this theater didn't have a permanent location. Performers worked intermittently at schools, clubs and children's camps. In 1937, the theater acquired a building on Gorkii Street. In 1970, a special building was built for the theater, which included an interesting clock with dancing dolls. The theatre has more than 300 people, who work to create special puppet plays that can be seen by children as well as adults. Also, there is a museum of more than 3000 theatre puppets from fifty countries of the world.
