Description:The Théâtre aux Mains Nues, founded in 1976 by Alain Recoing, is a venue dedicated to the arts of puppetry. It has been recognized as an LCMC (Lieu Compagnie Missionné pour le Compagnonnage) since 2017 by the Ministry of Culture. Heir to a unique artistic heritage, that of glove puppetry, it strives to transmit it and promote its multiple futures. Historically, the structure developed around a school. Training is at the heart of its project: it is this that makes the place unique, and which gives coherence to all its other activities (residency, companionship, programming, and cultural action). The school now has the QUALIOPI label and awards a diploma registered with the RNCP (level IV). In puppetry, it is the only venue to offer a continuing education diploma course.The Théâtre aux Mains Nues has several premises located in the 20th arrondissement of Paris: At 7 square des Cardeurs (school): - A studio for classes and residencies, - A construction workshop.

It provides an average of 900 hours of classes per year to 85 students, distributed as follows: - The "puppeteer" training, 507 hours per year, - The "fundamentals of glove puppetry" training, 170 hours per year, - Several thematic courses, from 35 to 70 hours each, - Two "meetings with an artist", 21 hours each, - Two amateur workshops, 35 hours per year each. With agreements with the City of Paris, the Ile-de-France Region and the DRAC Ile-de-France, the Théâtre aux Mains Nues is a partner of the Théâtre de la Marionnette in Paris within the framework of the CNMa.
