The Marionette Theater at the Swedish Cottage



   The Marionette Theater at the Swedish Cottage  in Central Park (originally a model schoolhouse, purchased, dismantled and relocated to its present location) ,  is one of the only public marionette theater companies left in the U.S. -  creating the scripts, building and outfitting the puppets, and designing and producing every one of the shows.    

Popular productions have included Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Hansel and Gretel and Cinderella Samba, a unique Brazilian take on the classic fairy tale. 

Located on the west side at 79th Street, easily identified by its unique appearance.
