The Grand Puppet Theatre is located in a beautiful building, which was constructed in 1912. The theatre itself is 70 years old, making it the oldest puppet theatre in St. Petersburg. In 1999, the theatre was awarded the reputable St. Petersburg theatre award, the "Gold Soffit”, a total of three times. Performances such as "The Little Fox Who Did Not Want to Be Tricky" took one of these prestigious awards and can be seen in the theatres even today. This is the perfect form of entertainment if you are traveling with children.
