“The Puppet Museum will reopen in our theatre after the New Year holidays. It will be named after the museum founder Pavlos Boroyan,” Ruben Babayan, the Art Director of the Armenian Puppet Theatre after H. Tumanyan told a press coference. About 300 dolls will be displayed in the museum. “Mainly, this is a museum of puppet images. We have also dolls with national dresses. We have two as gifts – the Chinese one and the New Zealandian one,” he said.

R. Babayan said, it was due to P. Boroyan that the decision over opening the Puppet Museum in the theatre came in 1975. The museum faced different problems in different times. It was reopened in 2002, but it had no show-windows. The first show-window was made 5 years ago.
