Puppet puppet show, known as silk puppet in ancient times, is an ancient traditional art of Han nationality, commonly known as Kerry in southern Fujian, also known as line play. During the performance, artists perform actions with puppets, which is an ancient and rare traditional drama popular in Minnan language areas. For hundreds of years, a set of stable and complete performance laws and regulations and more than 700 traditional plays have been formed.

After thousands of years of uninterrupted inheritance and accumulation, the puppet show has retained more than 700 traditional repertoires and a unique musical "puppet tune" composed of more than 300 tunes (including ancient musical instruments such as "Foot Drum" and "Gong Ju" and corresponding playing techniques), and has formed a set of exquisite and mature "traditional basic line rules", exquisite puppet carving, idol plastic arts and production techniques.
In the traditional puppet shows, a large number of ancient folk weddings, funerals and celebrations, folk beliefs and customs have been preserved.
