The Chin FeiFeng Marionette Theatre Troupe was founded in 1920 in Alian, Kaohsiung. Over 90 years later, the troupe is now in its third generation. On its traditional basis, the troupe seeks to develop and innovate. It is now the only marionette theatre troupe that performs at both cultural events and religious rituals. Frequently invited to perform in Taiwan and abroad, the troupe, solidified by its three generations, preserves, popularizes, and enhances traditional marionette theater. It is the most representative marionette theatre troupe in Taiwan.
The Chin FeiFeng Marionette Theatre Troupe is doing more than just preserving theatrical traditions; it is also bringing in modern theatrical ideas to elevate traditional marionette theater from displays of religious rituals to a high level of performing arts while expanding the range of artistic expression of marionette theater in Taiwan.
