Mostar Puppet Theater

The Mostar Puppet Theater was founded in 1952. Its seat, then as today, is the former Jewish synagogue in the Mostar settlement of Brankovac, which, in the early 1950s, the Jewish community of Mostar, ceded to the Puppet Theater, and only for that purpose. For all these years, the Puppet Theater has become a real temple of puppetry and the best representative of the cultural scene of this city, winner of numerous praises, awards and recognition at international and domestic festivals, and its performances have been seen by over two million spectators. He performed on the stages of Austria, France, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Iran, Norway, Sweden, and, of course, in all countries that emerged from the breakup of the former Yugoslavia.
