Museum of Anthropology - Theatre of Puppets

Went with my friend, Janice, to the Museum of Anthropology on Sunday, June 30 to the special exhibit: "Shadows, Strings and Other Things - The Enchanting Theatre of Puppets".  I had no idea what this exhibit would be all about and was thrilled to see the displays from so many countries, the video shorts of puppets entertaining the audience and details of how puppets were created and operated.





There are puppets which are operated by strings, on poles, by hand and using shadows.  Quite fascinating.
