24、Chinese shadow puppetry (皮影戏) is a form of traditional Chinese folk drama (剧) which is probably one of the most ancient arts using light and shadow (影子).

It’s believed that shadow puppetry appeared in the Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, shadow puppetry was played by many people in many places around the country. Then in the Yuan Dynasty, it was introduced into West Asian and European countries along the Silk Road. The art form became the most popular in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, it was played in almost every province and in many kinds of celebrations like weddings (婚礼) and birthday dinners.
In fact, most puppetry artists across China don’t get trained and don’t play shadow puppetry as a job. They just play it for fun and love. However, they are still experts in this field. In recent years, puppetry artists have explored (探索) ways to make this ancient art form as popular as it used to be and pass it on to the young, hoping more people can understand its importance and feel its beauty.
