Puppet show
A puppet show is a form of entertainment where puppets—figures controlled by a person—perform a story or act in front of an audience. These shows can feature various types of puppets, including hand puppets, marionettes (puppets controlled by strings), and shadow puppets. The puppeteer manipulates the puppets, often using voice and gestures, to bring characters and narratives to life. Puppet shows have a rich history across cultures and are used for both entertainment and education, often conveying moral lessons or cultural tales in an engaging and visual way.
