	Puppeteer: director

	The position (today the profession) of a puppet theatre director appeared on a large scale after the WWII and, with the development of institutional state puppet theatres, to a large extent determined the artistic shape of theatres. From the very beginning, this position generated considerable tensions in the milieu. The author discusses the main conflicts around the puppet theatre directorial positions in the Polish post-war period and analyses the reasons behind personnel shuffles. Because he was the head of two different puppet theatres in the 21st century, the author also shares his personal experience and reflections.
