subject: The Puppet Shop Is A Place For Fun [print this page] Puppet plays are very influential as they permit the children to hear and see the truths you wish to teach them in a story fashion. A play always will reveal some important truths, but the effect becomes stronger as those truths are further confirmed by a lesson taught with the help of an object.
At first, you should determine the theme of the play. This is the theme or lesson which you want to impart in your audience, children or elders or both. This theme must be visible during the process. Read your script attentively and make a list of the objects that are mentioned. As for example, in a play a puppet is striving to start a battery which is dead, by pushing a button. All you watch is the button, but they refer to the battery. For this play you may present an object lesson with the help of a rechargeable battery. Some of the usable objects for the play are lightning rod, eggs, a road map, hoe handle, a marble, and a stop sign. They may flush in the mind without even looking at the scripts.
In addition to focusing on some particular things discussed, glance at the objects that are not specified by name, but would be present in the picture if it was a real life story. Someone may enquire about the time, even when there is no mention of a clock. If the puppet narrates the incident of walking on a path through a forest, you can visualize objects such as stress, mud or dirt, rocks, forest animals, plants or insects.
When you get a list of objects at hand, brood over them in terms of the chief truth which you want to teach. Always try to relate the theme of the story to the queries of the audience. The audience will be transported from one query to another and they will continue to get the answers. You must read the script of the play and determine the principal points which will assist you to teach. Some brain storming objects or ideas may be mentioned in the introduction. The puppet theatre should be based on some innovations, some hidden reference, and some unspoken truth. Not every item r subject will be mentioned in the script. The duty of an artist will be to understand that and try to make the puppet show very realistic, effective with a touch of our real life experience.
There are four types of introduction: a question, a short story, set the picture, and an object lesson. There are more probabilities, these they are a good beginning and offer a good variety. Look at each one, while the play is completed, the introduction is reviewed and an application provided. That will prove to be a very effective formula to see active learning taking place with the spectators. Finally, here is exciting information for puppet lovers. They are requested visit www.puppetshop.ie for a thrilling experience at a puppet shop.
