And What is the Puppet Show?Let’s go back to our childhood. It is really common that a child plays a mini theathre with puppets very early. We all go through similar experience. The child becomes the poet, the writer , the director, the player and the wiewer himself. He pretends he knows what he does but he does not. He just interprets the way he sees the world around where all the creatures are smaller in shape and in character. The wizards seemingly behave like humans so the child imitates their talking. The child whispers and we all adored by the prettiness of the colourful skirt around the marionett's bust. We really find ourselves amongst them. The adult bears the child so child relies on the parent. It is evident that the child fears the adult dominance, the limit being "little" and "weak". He is frustrated and focused eagerly on making up the believed difference. He does all this in a transparent way. He takes us directly to his own deep inside and mimic openly what he feels. His personality will reborn in the picturesque scenerio of the puppet show, the characters truly reflect his interal values of good and evil , the ultimate scource of identity . The child dreams the world the puppet delivers. And the game has an unparallel effect on the player.
Certainly the adult continues to believe in the world of playing. Sometimes we smash all tales of our childhood together and replay only the fairies of our memoir. Our aim is to dedicate ourselves to the same principles in a more artistic way. The idea of puppet show is an old theory and survived because the puppet has the ability to transform his physical limits into a vivid human actor itself. His revival dues to our hellenistic tactic how much effort we put in drawing people and eras. This art has demonstated a powerful place in mind for a long time. Should we declare the usefulness of puppeting in education as well .No doubt those happy little figures smoothly bridges over the teacher and the pupil. The educator brings an honest and already tested support known back by generations. How nice to be appreciated in a family who takes time for a puppet show in our day to day activities. So we need a BaBu!
