The full trigger for this Chapter 2 trophy, including where the puppet show is and how to confirm it counted.

The Theater enthusiast trophy is one of the few purely optional pickups in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, and it hinges on a single moment you can walk right past. It sits in Chapter 2, tied to a small street performance near the church, and it only counts if you stay put for the whole thing.

Quick answer: In Chapter 2, reach the busy church and market area, stop at the wooden puppet stage, and watch the puppet show from start to finish without leaving. The trophy pops the moment the performance ends.


Where the puppet show is in Chapter 2

Chapter 2 (Felons) sends you through a crowded street toward a church. As you move into the packed square where the market crowd gathers, keep to the right side of the path. A small wooden puppet theater stage is set up there, and a show starts when you approach it.

The stage is easy to miss because the route pushes you forward through the crowd. Once you spot the performance beginning, stop and hold your position in front of it rather than continuing on.


Steps to unlock Theater enthusiast

Progress through Chapter 2 until you reach the crowded church and market area. This is the same square the story naturally routes you through.
Move to the right side of the path and find the wooden puppet stage. Get close enough that the show begins.
Stand in front of the stage and watch the entire puppet show. Do not walk away, and do not push forward into the next area until it finishes.

Wait for the performance to end. When it does, the Theater enthusiast trophy unlocks and you can continue down the side alley.

How to confirm it worked

You will see the “Theater enthusiast” trophy notification appear on screen as soon as the show wraps up, along with the “Trophy earned!” prompt. There is no menu step to check beyond that. If the notification pops, you are done and can move on.

Why it might not trigger

The single reason this trophy fails to unlock is leaving before the show is over. Walking off, or advancing into the next section mid-performance, stops the sequence and no trophy pops. Return to the stage and watch it through in full to get the credit.

If you pass the church area entirely without stopping, you can revisit Chapter 2 later through Chapter Select and watch the show then. This particular trophy is not tied to the missable Resonance Points, so replaying the chapter to grab it works fine.


Where it fits in the trophy list

Theater enthusiast is one of the two low-effort miscellaneous trophies in the game, alongside saying hello to the turtle. It is a bronze that plenty of players skip simply by not noticing the stage, which is why it reads as rarer than its difficulty suggests.
