Biography
"National heritage of Russia", "Supplier of Stars of Show Business", "Estradna Forge" - such flattering nicknames awarded the Internet community Children's Theater Studio "Fidgets".
The leadership and teachers in one voice argue that the ensemble is not a greenhouse on the "growing rare specimens" of gifted children, but just a place where there are some kind of inclinations in each child. And if someone from the students managed to achieve more, then this is due to their own work and the fact that at one time he received support and assistance in "fidgets".
The history of creation and composition
There are no talk about the constant composition of "fidgets", hundreds of studio have passed through the studio, if not thousands of talented kids. Announcements about the recruitment participants annually appear on the pages in "Instagram" and "Facebook".
