Puppetry in the theater
This section of the Gallery allows the public to discover the creativity of the many puppet theater companies in Quebec. 5 or 6 puppets from the same show are exhibited with their accessories and decorative elements.
Puppetry and the television
From Pépinot and Capucine to Pruneau and Cannelle, since the introduction of television in people’s homes, puppets have inhabited the small screen in their own way.
