Puppetry as a Medium for Development and Education
Puppetry, as an ancient mode of mass communication, holds immense potential even in this high-tech era. The age-old folk art of puppetry is a synthesis of various arts: sculpture, design, music, mime, dance, theatre, and the puppet itself. It is the crystallization of the puppeteer's imagination and magic. Puppetry is one of the liveliest and successful folk theatrical forms in India. It is among the most sophisticated enactments, with boundless possibilities for revolution and creation.
