yes...yes...yes...puppet show.....those small small doll one, people use string, hand, stick attached to them and make them moves.....dance.....fight...etc.....I know...I know....;p
 

ahah ok ok.. pai seh.. I thought you might have mixed up.
 

I guess Tim is looking for something along the lines of wayang kulit, but of a Chinese traditional type. Or it could be those done by suspension of strings.
 

yups.. went down to recce. Confirm it's there. In front of the dental shop. Dunno which kind of pupper though. It was closed when I went down only the auction was running.
 

they left already. wanted to shoot some pics of the stage but the whole field is now empty..
 

today(sunday, 6 Aug), puppet show at behind blk 928, yishun central 1(it is behind the bus interchange).
 

check out today's Sunday Times Life section pg 9. Troupe name is 'Xin Yi Sheng'. But did not mention their schedule. Even she does not think it will last another 20 years. Quite unfortunate.
 

dying trade or chinese custom.
