Bei-Bei the Wing Seller

A story about friendship and sharing

“Bei-Bei the Wing Seller” is a play that tells a lovely story of giving, acceptance, and loss. The Puppet and Its Double remakes the story of a children’s book into a puppet play for pre-school and grade-school children. The entire play is merry and warm, filled with pleasant songs, and spirited characters. The stage setting is composed of a collage of cloths; the puppets and devices are inventively made with materials from tablecloth, plastic, timber, to aluminum chips, demonstrating pieces of creativity in everything on stage. This play encourages the audience to be emotionally engaged, moving them to laugh with the characters. With this play, we bring the entire theater to float in the paradise of fantasy.
