Great Small Works presents its colossal celebration of tiny art, The Eighth International Toy Theater Festival.

Great Small Works will transform the vast and versatile St. Ann's Warehouse into numerous small performance arenas and an extensive exhibition, The Temporary Toy Theater Museum, which will juxtapose classic examples of paper theaters with radical, contemporary interpretations of the form.

In addition to new productions by Great Small Works, the festival will feature performances by a wide spectrum of international theater miniaturists. The festival also includes Toy Theater Workshops for people of all ages and two Toy Theater Symposia.

Artists will include Paul Zaloom, from the Emmy Award winning television series Beakman's World, alongside veteran puppeteer Lynn Jeffries; Frank Maugeri of Redmoon Theater; renowned French puppeteer Alain Lecucq; and Ravi Gopalan Nair and Parvathy Baul connecting West Bengal traditional puppet theater and Toy Theater of Victorian Europe.
