Description

Hand Shadow Puppets or Shadow play or alsoknown as shadow puppetry is an ancient form of storytelling andentertainment which uses flat articulated figures (shadow puppets)to create cut-out figures which are held between a source of lightand a translucent screen or scrim. The cut-out shapes of thepuppets sometimes include translucent color or other types ofdetailing. Various effects can be achieved by moving both thepuppets and the light source. A talented puppeteer can make thefigures appear to walk, dance, fight, nod and laugh.

Shadow play is popular in various cultures; currently there aremore than 20 countries known to have shadow show troupes. Shadowplay is an old tradition and it has a long history in SoutheastAsia; especially in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Cambodia. Itis also considered as an ancient art in other parts of Asia such asin China, India and Nepal. It is also known in the West fromTurkey, Greece to France. It is a popular form of entertainment forboth children and adults in many countries around the world.

Shadow puppetry originated during the Han Dynasty when one ofthe concubines of Emperor Wu of Han died from an illness. Theemperor was devastated, and he summoned his court officers to bringhis beloved back to life. The officers made a shape of theconcubine using donkey leather. Her joints were animated using 11separate pieces of the leather, and adorned with painted clothes.Using an oil lamp they made her shadow move, bringing her back tolife.Shadow theatre became quite popular as early as the SongDynasty when holidays were marked by the presentation of manyshadow plays. During the Ming Dynasty there were 40 to 50 shadowshow troupes in the city of Beijing alone. In the 13th century, theshadow show became a regular recreation in the barracks of theMongolian troops. It was spread by the conquering Mongols todistant countries like Persia, Arabia, and Turkey. Later, it wasintroduced to other Southeastern Asian countries. The earliestshadow theatre screens were made of mulberry paper. Thestorytellers generally used the art to tell events between variouswar kingdoms or stories of Buddhist sources.[1] Today, puppets madeof leather and moved on sticks are used to tell dramatic versionsof traditional fairy tales and myths. In Gansu province, it isaccompanied by Daoqing music, while in Jilin, accompanyingHuanglong music forms some of the basis of modern opera.

The origins of Taiwan's shadow puppetry can be traced to theChaochow school of shadow puppet theatre. Commonly known as leathermonkey shows or leather shows, the shadow plays were popular inTainan, Kaohsiung, and Pingtung as early as the Qing dynasty(1644-1911 A.D.). Older puppeteers estimate that there were atleast a hundred shadow puppet troupes in southern Taiwan in theclosing years of the Qing. Traditionally, the eight to 12-inchpuppet figures, and the stage scenery and props such as furniture,natural scenery, pagodas, halls, and plants are all cut fromleather. As shadow puppetry is based on light penetrating through atranslucent sheet of cloth, the "shadows" are actually silhouettesseen by the audience in profile or face on. Taiwan's shadow playsare accompanied by Chaochow melodies which are often called"priest's melodies" owing to their similarity with the music usedby Taoist priests at funerals. A large repertoire of some 300scripts of the southern school of drama used in shadow puppetry anddating back to the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries has beenpreserved in Taiwan and is considered to be a priceless culturalasset.

A number of terms are used to describe the different forms.
