State Marionette Theatre Rezo Gabriadze, Marionette theatre in Old Town, Tbilisi, Georgia.
The Rezo Gabriadze Theatre presents performances with handcrafted marionettes under three feet tall that express dramatic narratives through precise movements and detailed costumes.
Founded in 1981 by director Revaz Gabriadze, the theatre emerged as an artistic response to Soviet limitations, creating a space for experimental storytelling through puppetry.
The theatre stages productions such as The Battle of Stalingrad and The Autumn of My Springtime, which transform historical events into intricate puppet performances.
Located at Shavteli Street 13, the theatre offers daily performances and maintains a dedicated ticket office for advance reservations.
Performers use materials like paper, wire, clay, and twigs to create puppets that dissolve into silt during performances, representing natural cycles.
