The Zhangzhou Wooden Puppet Troupe, a treasure of living, dynamic preservation of a thousand-year-old shadow puppetry technique, finger-controlled sprites tell millennium legends within the rhythms of Southern Fujian. Here, it is considered a temple of puppet art, with a red silk sash gently fluttering, the puppets come to life between thousands of threads, enacting masterpieces such as “Mulan Saves Her Mother” and “Lei Wan Chun Slays the Tiger,” condensing Fujian folk customs, religious stories, and historical legends into finger art.
