The Birdman Puppet Becomes the Highlight of the Wuzhen Theatre Festival

Another year, the Wuzhen Theatre Festival is held as scheduled, with theatrical works from various countries brilliantly performed in different theaters. Among them, the French troupe "Tomorrow Changes Everything" brought the street performance segment of "Birdman and His Chimera Band," which went viral on social media. A 3.7-meter-tall "Birdman" puppet became the focal point, moving lively among the ancient town’s stone bridges and interacting spontaneously with the audience—bizarre yet fun, strange but not scary. Its unique "grotesque aesthetic" style has been shared and creatively remixed thousands of times on social media, becoming one of the most recognizable cultural symbols of this year’s festival. Visitors can not only enjoy wonderful theatrical performances but also have close interactions with the giant "Birdman" puppet, gaining unique surprises and joy. Come to the Wuzhen Theatre Festival, check in with this grotesque yet charming giant Birdman puppet, and experience the unique charm of theatre!
