Shadow puppetry bridges past and future

In 2000, with the support of Zhao Shutong, a shadow puppet collector in Chengdu, Sichuan, Wang Biao relocated in Chengdu with his wife and two apprentices, where they established a shadow puppetry troupe.

They began performing in parks, schools and other venues, gradually reviving the art form. In 2004, he returned to Langzhong and founded a shadow puppetry troupe, performing in its ancient town.

Wang Biao always remembers his grandfather's words:"Do not let shadow puppetry end with your generation".
