Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sergey Vladimirovich Obraztsov (1901-1992) was a Soviet and Russian puppeteer who is credited by the Encyclopadia Britannica with establishing puppetry as an art form in the Soviet Union. Rod theaters in many countries of the world owe their establishment to Obraztsov's influence. His collection of exotic puppets was the largest in Russia and one of the largest in the world. Obraztsov was born on June 22, 1901 in Moscow into the family of a high-profile railroad engineer. Between 1922 and 1931, he worked as an actor with Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko in one of the studios of the Moscow Art Theatre. During this period, he staged several vaudeville-style puppet shows before going on to set up the State Central Puppet Theatre in Moscow in 1931.
