The St. Petersburg Puppet Theater. The Road to Childhood

A strong impression received in one’s childhood is preserved in our memories like a journey into childhood. This was also true with the puppet master Yevgeny Demmeni. Having seen a puppet show at the age of five, he bore this memory with him into adult life, and made it his calling. Demmeni’s work lives on to this day. It’s a puppet theater that operates in the very center of ST. Petersburg, and for the locals, and for visitors to the city, for a hundred years, it has been a path back into childhood. Russia’s first professional puppet theater, in a new film by RTG TV.
