Urashimo Taro

Rouge28's take on a Japanese folktale opened my eyes to the interesting nature of puppetry in theatre. Given my intense loathing of the Thunderbirds i seem to unfairly have a damning view of puppetry. However the actress Aya Nakamura's relationship with her puppets really showed me how when utilised effectively puppetry adds a new dimension to some pieces of theatre.
