The Grateful Crane

Lighting Designer: Aleksey Melentyev

About love and betrayal, generosity and greed. This poignant story tells of a crane maiden who, as a sign of gratitude for being saved, weaves many wonderful, beautiful, and precious fabrics from her own feathers. However, her savior proves incapable of valuing human kindness and self-sacrifice. Betrayed by someone close to her, she leaves the world of humans forever. The audience is presented with a genre rarely used in puppet theatre — tragedy.

The Grateful Crane is a poetic puppet theatre performance exploring themes of love and betrayal, generosity and greed. This rare puppet tragedy is brought to life through expressive stage visuals and sensitive lighting design, emphasizing the emotional depth and dramatic atmosphere of the story.
