The tiger devours the affable monk, students clash in a dramatic spear and sword fight, plates twirl without ever smashing, couples fall in and out of love. A puppet show by and with Chinese Yeung Fay, a well known puppeteer and the last member of a puppeteer dynasty.
The Puppet-Show Man is part of the Pop up Puppets international festival at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern, August 18-21 2022.
The chinese glove puppets perform a series of breath-taking scenes and plunge us into a world where the dazzling dexterity of the puppeteer blends with lightness and reverie. Yeung Fai is unrelenting in the pursuit of his art and has become a celebrated and unchallenged master of Chinese glove puppets, a virtuoso able to express most accurately the state of mind, temper and feelings of the characters he handles.
For all family, from 6 years.
