Krasnoyarsk to host the Puppet Theater Festival Siberia. TERRA MAGICA

The 4th Interregional Puppet Theater Festival and Competition, Siberia. TERRA will take place in Krasnoyarsk between May 30 and June 3.

This year, organizers received around 50 applications from 35 puppet theaters across Siberia, the Urals, and the Russian Far East. After careful selection, just nine productions made the official lineup—showcasing a diverse range of styles from theater companies in Omsk, Vladivostok, Yekaterinburg, Kemerovo, Khabarovsk, Surgut, Kurgan, and Chelyabinsk.

Audiences also have a special treat in store: a non-competitive show featuring the Mongolian State Puppet Theater, which will present the Morin Khuur production on the stage of the Hvorostovsky Krasnoyarsk Opera and Ballet Theater, alongside guest performances by ensembles from BRICS nations.

In addition to the performances, the festival will offer an educational programme designed for theater professionals and puppetry enthusiasts alike.

The festival is supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Krasnoyarsk Region and organized by the Krasnoyarsk Puppet Theater.
