A puppet show and students loved it
Found her love again
The old art will last
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I’m Zhan Haojing, a high school student. I’m also a puppet performer. Look at this puppet. If I move my fingers, it will come to life!
I was born into a family of Minnan puppet performers. My grandpa and
my mum are both among the best. When I was little, I loved the amazing stories they told with their hands. However, things changed when I became a teenager. I felt less close to the art because people thought puppets were old-fashioned. I didn’t want to take part in the performances unless I was asked to.
