“We decided to make the“ Ladder to the Children ”, because this year for the first time we participate in the main program of the City Day at two venues at once - in front of the Army Theater and on Tverskaya Street with the performance“ Once Upon a Time ”. In addition, our theater took a course towards attracting a new audience: along with the opening of a new experimental space, a subscription for schoolchildren and new programs for children are offered. Our children’s “Staircase” is an action in this new theater program, ”said Ivan Chursin, director of the Army Theater.
