Extract
The art of puppetry in Egypt dates back to ancient times and the rule of the Pharaohs.
Puppet performances, and so-called shadow theatre productions, were also popular during the Ottoman Empire.
Determined to keep the entertainment form alive, is Egyptian Mohamed El-Sawy, who in 2004 established the El-Sakia Puppet Theatre.
The puppet enthusiast’s passion even extends to carving the mannequins himself, and hand-stitches their costumes
C’est super beau !
Faudrait réussir à trouver une vidéo de ce spectacle plus longue :) sinon je cherche de mon coté un dessinateur italien qui fait de superbe nu masculin bien réaliste mais le moteur de recherche est incapable de comprendre mes mot clé et m’envoie paitre dans l’antiquitité… 🥺
