That was pretty cool, not that I understood a word of it...

Hehe, I only understood snatches of it... but there are other videos with translations. ;)

AWESOME.

Yep, I ended up watching a lot of it!

A friend is asking if there's more video links for this?

I found tons of it on Youtube. The company who did the puppet show is called Rogital.

When I was in Taiwan (I have relatives there on my mother's side) I watched the puppet shows every day! I miss those!

I have a pair of puppets, but they aren't as "realistic" as they are nowadays, it seems.

Course, these are from the 80's...

The puppets are beautiful!

After i returned to the states, my Ai-yee's found out how much I missed the shows and sent them to me.

Thank you. I love them. I need to make a case for them to display them.
