The internationally renowned director said so after reviewing 17 acts of Hai Phong province’s water puppetry team.
These folklore water puppetry acts of cau ech (fishing frog), mua bat tien (eight fairies dance), cao bat vit (foxes catch ducks) will be staged abroad so that viewers can enjoy Vietnamese traditional water puppetry.
