Naivní divadlo, Professional puppet theatre in Perštýn, Czech Republic
Naive Theatre is a professional puppet theatre in Perstyn that specializes in puppet performances and family entertainment. The venue features multiple performance spaces with varied productions and shows running throughout the year.
Founded on 3 November 1949 as a branch of the Central Puppet Theatre in Prague, it was led by Jiří Filipi and opened with Pushkin's The Tale of the Golden Fish. It became independent in 1951 as the Regional Puppet Stage, was renamed the North Bohemian Puppet Theatre in 1961, and took its current name in 1968.
The theatre plays an important role in family cultural life for the local community. Performances bring puppet characters to life with stories that visitors of all ages can enjoy.
The theatre is located within walking distance of Liberec Town Hall and is easy to reach. Visitors should check the programme in advance since shows vary by season and change throughout the year.
The building at Moskevská 32/18 only became the theatre's performance venue after a full reconstruction in 1968; before that, the company played in a former cinema on Revoluční street while administration and technical operations had already moved to Moskevská in the early 1960s.
