The Magic Lantern - Paper Monkey Theatre

A puppet show depicting a traditional and popular Chinese folktale The Magic Lantern.

25 May 2017

Based on a traditional Chinese folktale, The Magic Lantern used puppets & music to create a world of magic & mystery. It was the tale of little Chen, born from a forbidden marriage between a heavenly goddess and a mortal. The mighty Er Lang Shen disapproved of this union & imprisons Chen’s mom beneath a dangerous mountain. Chen's calling was then to overcome all manner of evil obstacles & unbeatable odds, to save his mother from doom, & reunite his family.
