I saw Basil Twist's Petrushka last weekend with my friend Melissa.  I had no idea puppets could be so beautiful.

 

 

This is the only video I could find of a performance.  The one I saw was a bit different.  The way it was staged I could not see the puppeteers at all and instead of an orchestra there were two pianists.  Better, I think than this version.
