The Japan Foundation brings stimulating world of puppets with Yumemi Trunk Puppet Theater. Puppet Theater YUMEMI-TRUNK was founded by Satoko Yumidate in 2008 after her 5 years experience in a professional puppet performance company which Susumu Tange (UNIMA honorary member) leads. The performer Hiroyuki Kuwahara won ‘BEST ACTOR’ Award in ‘World Puppet Carnival Indonesia 2013’ for “Urashima” (http://www.worldpuppetcarnival.com/)
The show is directed by Mr. Noriyuki Sawa, who visited India last year and presented a splendid show of Figure Theater. After the astounding response, we now bring this Puppet Theater wherein the puppets of this show are also made by Mr. Sawa.
The group will present two performances – URASHIMA and YAGI NO OHANASHI (The Story of Goat). This Puppet Theater will later tour to Udaipur and Kathmandu.
