Teatrul Republican de Păpuși Licurici
Traditional puppet theatre where fairy tales come alive for the little ones
Classic and contemporary puppet shows for kids ages 3-10, with handmade puppets and painted sets
Worth it if you have spare time and travel with kids aged 3-10: puppet shows with hand puppets and painted sets, a long-running stage in the Centru district. Less relevant if you're visiting without children.
The Licurici Republican Puppet Theatre is one of Chișinău's main dedicated puppet stages, with a long-standing tradition and a repertoire of classic and contemporary shows for children. The intimate hall with rows close to the stage allows kids to be fully immersed in the story · hand-crafted puppets, painted sets, and the voices of skilled puppeteers create a fairy-tale atmosphere at every performance. Best suited for families with children aged 3-10, shows run 45-60 minutes and are scheduled on weekend mornings and afternoons. Affordable tickets (50-80 MDL per person) and online booking through the website make Licurici an easy choice for a family outing on rainy days or birthday celebrations.
