The State Puppet Theater of Almaty was established in 1935. In the Kazakhstan theatrical space, the theater is one of the oldest puppet theaters. In other cities of Kazakhstan, puppet theaters were created in the 80s. For 88 years, all kinds of puppets have appeared on its stage – from simple cane puppets to the most complex marionettes.
