Théâtre Toone

Théâtre Toone Review

An old puppet theater, now run by the youthful Nicolas Geal—an eighth-generation member of the Toone family who's thus known as Toone VIII—this theater has a repertory of 33 plays, including some by Shakespeare. You won't understand a word, as performances are given in the local vloms dialect, but it's fun anyway. There's a puppet museum (only accessible during the shows) and a great, old-fashioned bar.
