Great theater! A good repertoire. A wonderful cast of artists who bring love to the theater to everyone who came. Each production is a celebration for both children and adults! In the repertoire of the theater today, everyone will find something for themselves. The hall is small, but very cozy; you can see and hear from anywhere. Good location a few minutes from Kupalovskaya metro station. You can also park by car, but it will take a little time to find an empty place. Tickets for the performances are sold in a matter of hours, there are no free seats. Every performance is a Full House! Keep it up !! Good health to all!!!

A wonderful theater for children and with unique performances for adults) the hall is compact and even from the side seats you can see smartly (even better for my taste than from the back rows). For schoolchildren, there is a favorite Sold laugh in the country of unlearned lessons, for kids there is a Dog Sonya and a Wolf and seven goats, many of my favorite performances for adults are here (tickets are like hot cakes) and at the theater of Belarusian drama.

What a wonderful, cozy, atmospheric place!!! The hall is small. And the play "Belvedere Boarding House" is something very philosophical, touching, tragic and funny. The acting is great! Unsurprisingly, tickets sell out faster than hotcakes. I recommend watching! There is a museum of puppet actors. Very interesting! It seems to me that it is even more for adults than for children! I'm sure it was the first and definitely not the last trip to this theater! 🥰❤️❤️❤️

I have not been to the puppet theater for more than 25 years.
Honestly, I don't really remember the interior as it was, I just remember the fish) But at the moment everything is clean, beautifully neat. There is a buffet with reasonable prices.
I really liked the doll museum.
We came with our daughter for the first time, to the play "in the land of unlearned lessons" the production is just super. The acting is beyond praise. A 7-year-old child was very involved. Leaving after the performance, they immediately bought a ticket for the production: "Tutta Larsen.The first and only one"

This theater has left one of the best memories of the beautiful Minsk. If you are traveling with a child, then by all means go to this puppet theater. We went to the play "Kiwi". For me, this is the 30th baby performance and, believe the expert, I have not seen the best entertaining and educational performance! Mostly performances for babies based on fashionable and folk tales, but here we have a mix of educational information translated into children's with interesting interactive content. Plus, the wonderful acting, kind atmosphere, gorgeous dolls! We will come back more than once, and I recommend it to you.

We stayed with my mother under great impression from the production of "Notes of a young doctor" (based on the cycle of stories by M. Bulgakov).
It's really worth seeing for everyone!
An incredible embodiment of scenes that, as it seemed to me, could only be imagined in my imagination. Even comparing it with the film adaptation of Balabanov's "Morphine", this incredible atmosphere was created with the help of unusual props, lights, dolls and brilliant acting and looked no less worthy than the cinematic version.
It is impossible even to compare it, and it is not necessary.
I wanted to applaud without stopping.
Thank you very much for the emotions and the reflection launched after watching.
And to all the employees for the atmosphere, which was very warm and friendly. And in the wardrobe, and in the wonderful buffet, and in the hall.
Thank you ☺️
Have you already bought tickets for the next performance 🤍

The theater is wonderful, the performances are super, the actors are on top, if not for one thing! Tickets for 18+ performances are almost impossible to buy. And also a very "polite" woman works at the ticket office, who in 2 seconds discourages the desire to come to buy tickets. (We did not see that "sold" was written everywhere on the poster, we decided to ask the woman at the checkout, unfortunately, we interrupted her phone conversation and she said, not in the most pleasant way, that we should look around)
They came on 09/01/2024

performance.
I was at the play "Notes of a young doctor" The first quarter of the play, in my opinion, turned out to be a little overplayed by the actors in the American manner (although I am not familiar with the literary basis - I am not sure whose merit it is to the author of the work or the director of the play). Starting from the second quarter of the performance, I really liked it, I began to empathize with the main character. The recoil and acting of the actors leave a strong impression. It wasn't boring at all, the audience applauded standing up.
.
..
.
The hall is cozy and pleasant. Because of the super popularity, there is a lot of excitement and people buy all tickets for additional seats, but they are not comfortable.
It is a pity that this performance is given so little. We've been trying to buy tickets for 2 months.
.
BUFFET - 4-.
Buffet is a Soviet approach: it's good that there is a buffet.
In 15 minutes, 1 barmaid served no more than 10 people. For a 3.5-hour performance, this is extremely small. After the opera house, the impression is a little wild - there are 2-3 ticket offices in each buffet and 2-3 employees at each. We need at least a vending machine for drinking, and as for me, then mineral water like Minskaya-4 or Darida, but not any rubbish like Aqua mineral or Sos-sola. You can add a vending machine for tea, coffee and chocolate bars, provided that the coffee is not a cloudy liquid. Many people asked for ice cream.
.
The toilet is frankly 3 balls.
The cabins in the men's toilet were built in violation of sanitary norms and rules of the Republic of Belarus. It is wildly difficult for a man of size 54 to turn around in a booth - you need to put the Minister of Culture there and shoot on video how he will be able to close the booth and the network on the toilet - the whole former USSR will laugh. The President of the Republic of Belarus simply will not enter there - it will not fit.
There is no toilet paper in the booths, for some reason it is at the entrance to the toilet room. What kind of idiot came up with this quest?
In the women's bathroom, there was a crazy queue of women rushing to the men's room with apologies, so as not to shit themselves. For a super popular 3.5 hour performance, this is a serious problem.
.
conclusion: Thanks to the artists and the administration for a wonderful evening.
.
We need to work on the buffet and toilet.
By the way, engineers and architects in institutes were lectured about this already 50 years ago, that there should be more women's toilets than men's, because a woman standing does not do anything in the toilet in the urinal and at train stations, gas stations, theaters there are 2-3 times more queues in the women's toilet than in the men's. The struggle for gender equality in the early 20th century in the USSR became the cause of outright stupidity, and during performances longer than 2 hours with an interval of 15 minutes and bullying of women.

We are from Syktyvkar. According to the reviews, we decided to go to the theater. I'm not a fan of theaters. We went to the performance "Sold laughter": an adult, children aged 16 and 12.
Just wow. Sorry for the slang. The kids are thrilled, I'm thrilled! I really liked the musical compositions! I really enjoyed working with the gym! I really liked the "special effects": huge hands (we even tried to touch them), flying trams, all the actors who "touched" the audience. But most importantly, I was lucky enough to read the letter that the woman was carrying to distract the guards! I keep it! Good day everyone!

My daughter and I really liked it. Firstly, the staff knows their business to the smallest detail. Starting from the wardrobe and ending with the pirate cafe. There is a doll museum upstairs with very interesting exhibits. We went to a New Year's performance, from which we were very impressed: a large cast, a variety of costumes, scenery, dolls! It may seem to someone that the theater has been "forgotten" to modernize. But it seems to me that this is his highlight. I highly recommend it!

Finally, my youngest daughter and I went to the puppet theater, there was a Little Red Riding Hood performance on 02/03/24, in order to choose good places, you need to watch tickets for a month, bought online through ERIP, in principle it is convenient, but there is a fly in the ointment - you need to print tickets, it is convenient if there is office equipment at work, so-so in general. The performance was on Saturday, parking is enough on the nearest streets. The performance itself is of course very cute and interesting, there were dolls and live actors, they kept in touch with the children. The kids were definitely all happy, and accordingly their parents too. Anyone who has not been to the puppet theater should definitely visit, it's worth it. And for sure there is also a doll museum on the technical floor: small but interesting, so you can hang out not only in the cafe during the intermission

The theater itself is tiny, but so cute and cozy. It is sooo difficult to buy tickets for the performance. We got in because someone handed over the tickets in front of us. The artists are wonderful. The performance is great. Every time I visit Minsk, I try to buy a ticket in advance online, but so far without success. I recommend this theater to visit. There are performances for children and adults. I would have gone to a children's play too, to visit as a child.
The Pioneer cinema is also located in the same building as the theater. There is a mosaic panel of Soviet times on the wall. You can take a coffee and look at the panels. There are old movies in the cinema, which is actually why I choose this cinema. Because of the murals and old movies. I was looking at the Cherbourg umbrellas there.

It is very difficult to get tickets, but after the performance it is quite understandable. I was lucky to get to the production of "Pension Belvedere". I thought there would be puppets, but it turned out that actors in costumes resembling dolls were playing. A strong work, a storm of emotions. And they cried and laughed. I liked that the ending is warm and sincere, like a plush blanket. I highly recommend it if you haven't already

Очень понравился спектакль и актеры! Превзошли все ожидания! Были на спектакле "В стране невыученных уроков", интересно было и детям, и взрослым. Это не банальные куклы на ниточках, это был очень крутой микс человек+куклы в самых разных исполнениях. Декорации, музыка, свет: все на уровне, очень самобытно. Весело, поучительно, заряжает настроением. Небольшой зал, видно и слышно, мне кажется, с любого места. Есть небольшой музей кукол. Однозначно советую и приду сюда еще и на детские, и на взрослые спектакли.

I've loved puppet theater for a long time, I went even when I had no child, even to children's productions. It's a very soulful place. There is a little feeling that time has stopped there, for repairs and arrangement inside, but maybe this is even a plus- such a calm world without Instagram and tiktok. The performances and acting are great! Thank you for everything you do.

Душевно. Смотрел с дочкой Морозко-неожиданно интересная игра актеров.
Постановка "Тута Карлсон и Людовик 14" вобрала в себя все виды кукольного жанра: театр теней, живых кукол и частично Дель арте. Забавно.
Ребята молодые, ещё на подъеме, играют с душой. Заинтересовал голос хозяина фермы)

I would like to see more than just dolls. The endless monologues of the characters tired, barely watched to the end. And the beginning of the performance was too long. But the artists are professionals!!! We recommend you to watch it! We will definitely not go to this performance anymore.

It can't be compared to the performances of my childhood.
We were impressed - we gave tickets to friends (their child is 12), we were also completely delighted!
To make sure, so to speak, we went to the play "Sonya the Dog", we were just as delighted.
In general, for those who remained indifferent to the puppet theater in Soviet times, I highly recommend going now!

I've never been to this theater. For 4 months they tried to buy tickets to the play "Notes of a young doctor". It was not possible to do this via the Internet, since there were never any tickets. We decided to buy at the checkout on the day of sale. I work in the theater myself and am ready to stand in line for tickets, but I'm sorry: the first people in the queue arrive at 6 a.m., take a queue and immediately buy 30-40 tickets to the stalls for one performance. It is clear that not for yourself and your relatives, but for resale later. It would be great if the theater could resolve this issue, since we stood in line for 3 hours and bought the last two tickets, at that moment there were about 50 more people behind us who left with nothing. No matter what a great performance, I think that all people should be able to buy tickets at the box office of the theater, and not from a reseller for x3 of the real cost.
