The “Lotus Water Puppet” performance features a collaboration of highly experienced artists and musicians from various traditional craft villages across the country. Guided by talented directors, this unique traditional art form of water puppetry, exclusive to Vietnam, breathes new life into the stage. It seamlessly blends tradition with a touch of contemporary flair, all while remaining closely attuned to modern lifestyles. Water puppetry dates back over a thousand years, originating around the 11th century. During the annual rice harvest festivals, farmers in the Red River Delta region would gather for folk singing, dancing, and other festivities. The secret lies in the puppets themselves. They are made of buoyant fig wood and painted with lacquer. Puppeteers deftly manipulate the puppet arms using bamboo sticks and strings.
