“Hao Bang Ah!” is a common Chinese expression meaning “Great!” or “Well done!” Each year, Chinese Theatre Works celebrates the Lunar New Year season with an original “budaixi” traditional Chinese glove-puppetry production that features the twelve animals of the Chinese Zodiac. This year’s show stars the Dragon, who presides over a jolly selection of wild puppet skits, dances, popular songs, and well-known Chinese sayings that celebrate the wit and wisdom of the zodiac animals.
Special guests include the Dragon King and other all-star members of the zodiac puppet ensemble. A hands-on post show demonstrations will make the Chinese bilingual cultural experience accessible to even the youngest audience members.
