Google Vera RozanovaAbout Vera Rozanova
Vera Rozanova presents Don't Wait For Me… – France Showcase, a children's puppetry and theatre show running for 40 minutes at Salle Emilienne Moreau-Evrard during Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026. In a world where houses grow legs, wings or sails and travel at night, one morning a house disappears — leaving its child behind. Through delicate glove puppetry and gently animated images, the show unfolds as a dreamlike journey about loss, hope and belonging. Objects breathe, drawings come alive, and the piece speaks across generations as a cross-cultural work designed to travel beyond borders. Suitable for ages 5 and over, tickets are £10.

A tender 40-minute glove puppetry show from Vera Rozanova, following a child whose house has disappeared into a dreamlike journey about home and belonging. Gentle, visual and suitable for ages 5 and over, it is a quietly extraordinary piece of cross-cultural storytelling.
