Acclaimed French puppetry artists Caroline Borderies and Christian Barthod will present a hands-on workshop before their performance of Two Tales of Tricksters from Southeast Asia. Participants will be introduced to the mechanics, techniques and history of shadow puppetry, preparing them for a deeper appreciation of the performance to follow.
It’s a great afternoon for kids: Workshop participants will get to make puppets in the shape of traditional Halloween characters such as witches, cats, ghosts, and bats.
