Sunday, September 06, 2009King Bird shadow puppet Made this shadow puppet at a workshop for kids. First there was a shadow-puppet show (based on a Vietnamese folk tale), then a make-your-own-shadow-puppet session. We were provided with all materials, including thin dowels with pre-punched holes, and the use of a hot-glue gun. One of the children eyed my creation (then unpainted) critically. "What's that?" she said. "That's King Bird. He's a magic bird. See his boots? That's because he transforms into a man." (This was suggested to me by the show's final transformation scene, in which the frog-hero becomes the Prince of Fairyland.) "It looks like a chicken," said the child. She punctuated her remark by making her character (a 6-inch penguin) take a few light jabs at King Bird with its beak. (Note: In the above image, King Bird's feet cannot be seen; he is wearing boots with a red heel.)
