Shadow Puppetry (皮影戏) started during the Western Han Dynasty. It used to be popular in the countryside because it was simple and cheap. It’s a mix of acting, singing and music. It tells us about historical stories, passing on (传递) customs and traditional culture.
The puppets are usually made from paper or animal skin (皮肤). It is not easy to make them. In Shaanxi — the birthplace of shadow puppetry, puppet-makers have to follow 24 steps (步骤) to make a puppet. Each puppet usually has 11 parts, such as its head, legs and arms.
Wang Haiyan’s father is a master (大师) of Shadow Puppetry from Shaanxi. When she was a kid, she helped her father make puppets. “They were my favourite toys,” Wang said. At around 13, she started to learn to make puppets and perform with her father. Now the 44-year-old lady is a master. She has her own workroom to pass on the art.
These days, Wang came up with (提出) creative ways to make the folk art more popular. She works with companies that borrow elements (元素) of Shadow Puppetry for their own products. “From fashion and makeup products to souvenirs (纪念品), anything is possible,” Wang said.
In 2016, Wang made shadow puppets based on the cartoon series Huyao Xiaohongniang, and put on a live performance. She used special colours and skills to make the performances more interesting. She teaches Shadow Puppetry classes in school as well. “I hope more young people can learn about the art!” she said.

When you hear British say “Drop in anytime” or “Come and see me soon” you should realize that it doesn’t mean you are welcome to come over to their house at anytime. It’s necessary to make a phone call before visiting someone, because British people think being on time is very important.
Never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You can refuse an invitation by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I’m sorry because I couldn’t come.” If you are unable to come after accepting the invitation, be sure to tell those who invite you in advance (提前) that you will not be there.
If you accept the invitation to a party or a dinner, maybe you should bring small gifts with you, such as bottles of drink, flowers and chocolate. It’s polite to do so, especially when you are invited for a meal. A thank-you note or a telephone call is also considered polite. Sometimes English people may take you out to have dinner in a restaurant. But it does not mean that he is going to pay the bill (账单) at the end of the meal. He might want a separate bill. That means each person pays his own bill.
