| Description |
Water puppetry has been performed on the surface of the ponds and paddy fields of the Red River Delta in northern Vietnam for a thousand years - the lively creation of farmers who spend their days tending the flooded rice plantations. Now the internationally renowned Thang Long troupe brings the unique tradition to Darwin's waterfront. |
