    The stage for the show is the surface of a water pool. Puppeteers demonstrate their clever skills by managing puppets with long bamboo rods and a string mechanism under the surface of the water. A traditional Vietnamese orchestra provides musical accompaniment.
    The puppets act out the stories told by the songs, which reflect the peaceful life of the Vietnamese countryside.
