FAQ About The Role of Puppetry in Cultural Ceremonies

Puppetry in cultural ceremonies faces several challenges today, including the decline in traditional craftsmanship, competition from modern entertainment forms, and limited financial support. Urbanization and globalization have led to a reduced audience for traditional performances, posing a threat to their survival. Additionally, the training and transmission of skills to new generations have become challenging, with fewer young people pursuing this art form. Efforts to revive and sustain cultural puppetry involve community support, education, and innovations that integrate contemporary themes with traditional practices.
