Կրիվոյ Ռոգի քաղաքային տիկնիկային թատրոն, Puppet theater in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine
Kryvyi Rih's city puppet theater is a venue where professional performers work with string, rod, and hand puppets on a specially designed stage. The space accommodates different puppet performance techniques and allows audiences to watch stories unfold through animated characters and elaborate sets.
Founded on April 27, 1977, the theater was established as a cultural institution during the later Soviet era in this industrial city. Its creation reflected efforts to provide family entertainment during that period of urban development.
The performances here bring Ukrainian folk tales and classic stories to life through puppet artistry on stage. These productions connect traditional storytelling with craftsmanship, making literary works accessible to audiences through this distinctive performance form.
Performances happen regularly throughout the year, with extra shows scheduled during school holidays and seasonal celebrations. It helps to check the schedule in advance, as the program varies depending on the time of year.
Performances here weave in elements from the city's mining heritage, using metallic components and industrial themes in the puppet designs themselves. This connection to local industry gives the productions a distinctly regional character that goes beyond typical storytelling.
