Enter a world of enchantment
Click on the images at left to visit the theaters shown
For generations, the world of the toy theater has enchanted young and old alike.
People around the globe have found another dimension hidden in those flat "proscenium sheets." Toy Theater devotees remember countless hours past in supsended animation!
Animating it all, of course, was the whole idea. And many of us remember putting on a show for family gatherings with siblings carried insometimes kicking and screaming!to fill those empty seats
The allure of the toy theater, thank Goodness, has not diminished: this may be the age of video playthings, but the closet is full of yesterday's models.
Here are some models that've been around a bit longer (we'd love to hear of more; please go to the "Crechemania Forums," see Home page).
Fine companies like Ballermann & Søn (to mention just one whose sheets I have loved) continue the tradition begun so long ago. Their wares, we know, will continue to delight and instruct for a long, long, time.
