Shadow Puppet Theatre
Light, shadow and story — children design their own puppets and bring three stories to life on a glowing screen.
Shadow puppetry joins visual art, storytelling, music and performance. Children craft puppets, learn to move them behind the screen, voice their characters, and work as an ensemble to perform for family and friends.
