About
A family workshop at the Musée du quai Branly built around the shadow theaters of Asia. It starts in the Asian collections, where kids see shadow puppets, jointed marionettes and cut-paper figures, and the skill behind the traditional stories told with them. Back in the workshop room, kids handle real puppet figures and perform a scene from the Ramayana, the Indian epic.
Where it is
Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac
37 Quai Jacques Chirac, 75007 Paris
