PIC web marketing manager Elly Stoilova said over 140 witnessed the first show on Tuesday.
Stoilova said along with PIC’s Clubmates, they organized three exciting, fun-filled morning activities for Russian children and their parents.
About 40 to 60 children each day participated in the “Hidden Treasure Hunt,” “The Comic Book of Records Day” and “The Rainbow Morning” which were the themes for the games and activities.
On Friday, the cast presented the final show titled “Olympic Games.”
“Kids and parents had a wonderful time watching the lively, entertaining and educational puppet show, which they normally view on TV in Russia,” Stoilova said.
But the show was not for Russian guests only.
On Wednesday night, over 40 local children and their parents enjoyed the colorful performance of the Gogoriki masters, who are professional actors from St. Petersburg, Russia.
“For many local children, it was the first time to watch live theater and it left them with enchanting memories. The kids were laughing, dancing and actively answering Gogoriki’s questions and this proves that a puppet show can cross any language barrier.” Stoilova said.
For each performance, tickets were sold to collect funds for local and Russian charities, Stoilova said.
PIC is supporting an orphanage hospital in Vladivostok which houses over 100 newly born infants and toddlers, and proceeds from the ticket sales will buy diapers for the babies and other supplies for the orphans.
Proceeds from the tickets sold to Saipan residents will be used to fund a local project, Stoilova added.
