Fantasy of The White Snake (Taichung, July 30, 2016), a Taiwanese puppet theater performance by the Jin-Ing Ger Puppet Troupe, innovates nowadays by combining big puppetry with the appearance of the puppeteers on stage, in addition to using TV 3D computer animation. Now, big puppeteers manipulate puppets with wooden sticks, with an emphasis on the big puppets’ facial expressions as shown on TV, as in the “PiLi TV” puppet drama that Huang invented. The group’s performances addressed many sensitive political issues and included much innuendo, alluding to political figures such as Chiang Kai-shek and Chiang Ching-Kuo and the conflict with the Mandarin Movement. “Pili TV Puppet Theatre” was a great hit and very popular from 1970 to 1974, but it was eventually forced to cease production because of the political situation. Taiwanese hand puppet theatre (also called glove puppetry) originated in the 17th century in local opera performed by puppets in Quanzhou, Mainland China, and Taiwan, and peaked in the “Pili TV Puppet Theatre”-“Yunchou Grand Gracious Knight” series, by Toshio Huang (Huang Chun-Hsiung, 1933–), the son of Taiwan’s national treasure puppet master, Huang Hai-Dai.
