Paper Monkey Theatre was inaugurated in April 2008. We are a unique bilingual puppetry theatre – a magical place where children and adults are educated, enlightened, and entertained. Since our inauguration, we have introduced thousands of audiences to the wonder and art of puppetry and have touched the lives of many through enchanting performances, curriculum-based workshops, as well as Digital Learning and Outreach Programmes. We believe that our traditional Asian values should be preserved, especially in today’s ever-changing environment. Paper Monkey Theatre promotes and encourages these values through traditional and modern puppetry shows for children and families.
