Kathputli is a string puppet theatre, native to Rajasthan, India, and is the most popular form of Indian puppetry.Being a string marionette, it is controlled by a single string that passes from the top of the puppet over the puppeteers.
Some scholars believe Kathputli art tradition is more than thousands years old. One finds its reference in Rajasthani folk tales, ballads and sometimes even in folk songs.Similar puppets which are rod-puppets, are also found in west Bengal. But it is truly rajasthan's amazing kathputli which made India one of the first countries to invent its traditional puppetry .Tribes of Rajasthan have been performing this art from the ancient times and it has become an eternal part of Rajasthani culture and tradition. No village fair, no religious festival and no social gathering in Rajasthan can be complete without the Kathputlis. It is believed that somewhere 1500 years ago, tribal Rajasthani Bhat community started the use of Kathputli as string marionette art and it is in their love for tradition that art of Kathputli survived the test of time.
Tradition of Kathputli is based on folk tales and stories. Scholars believe that folk tales convey the lifestyle of ancient Rajasthani tribal people and Kathputli art might have originated from present day Nagaur and surrounding areas. Rajasthani Kings and nobles were patrons of Art and Craft and they encouraged the craftsmen in activities ranging from wood and marble carving to weaving, pottery and painting. Over the last 500 years, Kathputli was a system of patronage supported by kings and well-off families. The patrons would look after the artists in return for the artists singing praises of the patrons’ ancestors. Bhat community claim that their ancestors had performed for royal families, and received great honour and prestige from the rulers of Rajasthan.

By this time I would imagine you are wondering where I got the Idea for that title… It's actually from the red rocks down to the left (in my note). I thought they looked just like japanese puppet dolls! Weird, I know...

"The puppets remain so forever. A puppet can travel and running adventures and never ages a single day. A child of flesh and bone age, and before it does anything other than death.-In the heart of the forest of John Boyne.

"Las marionetas permanecen así para siempre. Una marioneta puede viajar y correr aventuras y nunca envejece un solo día. Un niño de carne y hueso envejeze, y aute sí no tiene otra cosa que la muerte.- En el corazon del bosque de John Boyne.

I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind
and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me,
you can't see a thing"

A puppet quietly appears inside the little box theater, hoping to catch people's attention so a show can begin. Today the bike was parked just off Clark Street in Andersonville...such a happy, adorable thing to see! More on the Puppet Bike: www.puppetbike.com
