PuppetART: Detroit Puppet Theater

PuppetART was formed by a trio of Russian puppeteers, all theater professionals in 1995. They began as a touring company and performed throughout Michigan, and in other parts of the US. In 1998, the troupe established its own theater in downtown Detroit. PuppetART is the only professional resident puppet theater in Southeast Michigan offering year round weekly performances in conjunction with hands-on puppet making workshops and museum tours.

Our Mission: TO EXPLORE A VARIETY OF CULTURES AND TO FOSTER AN APPRECIATION OF THE WISDOM OF TRADITIONS, THE BEAUTY OF THE SPIRIT AND THE ART OF DIVERSE COMMUNITIES THROUGH PUPPET PERFORMANCES, EXHIBITS AND CLASSES
