Описание к видео Taiwanese Bodehi Puppetry: Chen Hsi-Huang Traditional Puppet Troupe Performance

In the 1750s, Chinese migrants brought glove puppetry, known as bodehi in the Hokkien language, to Taiwan. Soon, the form became an intrinsic element of Taiwanese culture. Today, while the tradition has waned, young performers are determined to carry it on.

Watch the Chen Hsi-Huang Traditional Puppet Troupe Performance perform a segment of the classic Chinese novel “Romance of the Three Kingdoms.”
