About
A covered 90-seat puppet theater inside Parc Georges-Brassens, run by the company Les Marionnettes de Vaugirard. Shows star Polichinelle, the hook-nosed hero of the old Paris glove-puppet tradition, played behind a carved wooden booth with red velvet curtains.
The puppeteer talks straight to the audience and plays off the kids' reactions. Sets, costumes and puppets are made in the theater's own workshop, alongside antique boxwood heads with glass eyes.
