Water puppet show, a traditional art form closely connected with the long standing spiritual life of the Vietnamese people. It is performed in a pool of water with the water surface being the stage. The puppeteers stand behind a screen and control the puppets using long bamboo rods and string mechanisms hidden beneath the water surface. A traditional orchestra provides accompanying background music. Singers sing songs which tell the story being acted out by the puppets. The authentic shows are exclusively in Vietnamese that the tales depict rural life in villages.
