Our Mook “BuDai Show” will introduce you a Glove puppetry master, the story of puppet dramas, Glove puppetry and musical instruments. In the story of puppets, we introduce the puppets at different historical moments. For example, Japanese occupation period, Anti-communist and Anit-Soviet Puppets, and the early puppet dramas.

After we introduce the story of puppets, we will try to promote how to handle the puppets show and produce costumes for the handy puppets. At last we will introduce different characters in the famous Pi Li Glove puppetry.

I know. It’s Garfield.

Garfield? I think that is Pikachu.

Pikachu? Pikachu is live in Japan.

I guess that is SpongeBob.

It’s impassible. You saw too many cartoons.

Oh…maybe.

Do you know what it is, the audience?

SpongeBob!

Really!

Combination Bring The Completely New Vision To Chinese Puppet Show

While wandering in the Tian-lu LI Puppet Museum, I met six people －two French, Hai-Li XIA, her friend and a guest lecturer of National Taiwan University of Art. They visited the museum to find valuable source for a research project of Chinese puppet that they planned to conduct after going back to France.

During our refreshing visit in the museum, we honorably had the company of Tian-lu LI’s descendent along the way. Luckily enough, there was a puppet show about the Chinese folk legend --- Wu Song’s fights the tiger. People there were all intoxicated by the wonderful show.



Afterward, his descendent introduced some interesting things of Chinese Puppet, for example, suona horn, a woodwind Chinese instrument. Due to his hospitality; we had the opportunity to visit their greenroom after the show.



The refreshing and lively show which was performed by the Giwaran puppet theatre group had combined the traditional performing art with the modern way of performance. Not only did this combination bring the completely new vision to Chinese puppet show, but at the meantime the pubic could learn more about this genre of performing art.
