| Description |
"Small Shadow Puppet" (also known as "puppet" and some call "Nang Talong") is a type of theater that uses a white screen and lighting to bring down shadows like the large shadow puppet, too. But on the contrary, the small shadow puppet is smaller and the figure can control the movement of the limbs and the mouth can speak by shaking the bamboo pole and can also perform fairy tales, new stories or comedies. Small Shadow Puppet artists need to know how to control the leather and narrate. The music accompanying the small shadow theater is the Pin Peat. The Sbaek making is not much different from the large shadow puppet.
