Vietnam Travel Haiku - Hanoi Municipal Water puppet theatre
 
  water puppet theatre
our heart swings and swirls
with the water puppets

water puppet theatre
water gives life
to puppets

fluider than water
water puppets
Hanoi water puppet theatre

water puppet theatre
the water dances
with puppets

water puppet theatre
children ask to splash
in the water

water puppet theatre
streaming with life
puppets and water

water puppet theatre
a sea of legends
twirls and swirls

water puppet theatre
the water refuses
to die down

water puppet theatre
water keeps inviting
the puppets

water puppet theatre
audience mom plays with child
as if he is too a puppet

The water puppet theatre near Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi is worth every cent a watch. The show starts with traditional music performance after which puppets in the form of dragons, phoenixes, female dancers, fishes among others take their turns to dance, jump, hop, twirl and swirl over the water as they act out the legends of Vietnam. The
water seems to give so much life to the wooden puppets. It swings to the music and is the soul of the whole performance besides of course the pupeteers behind the bamboo screens also over the water.
