Figurentheater Winterthur

Follow organizer

The Figurentheater Winterthur has been the place for figure and object theatre for over 50 years. Around 80 performances for children and adults give an insight into the diversity of this cabaret. Entertaining. Touching. Convincing.

In addition to the in-house ensemble, renowned, internationally known puppeteers from Switzerland and abroad are given a platform for their traditional, classical and experimental pieces on the small but fine stage. Many children come into contact with the world of theatre for the first time when they attend a performance. Two thirds of the performances are aimed at young audiences. The productions for adults and young people are a special experience.
