The Puppets' Metamorphoses will run until 24 June.
“Our goal is to create a Festival that breaks stereotypes concerning the perception of puppet theatre as a theatre only for young audiences,” the festival's website said.
The festival will present “the most worthy phenomena, original means of artistic expression as well as trends in a contemporary puppet theatre for adults”, the website added.

A wide spectrum of puppet theatre projects will be presented by renowned professional artists of the young generation from Poland and other countries, including France, Spain, Hungary and Lithuania.
The Festival is financed by City Office of Białystok and the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. (rg)
