Please write an English introduction of shadow play.

Shadow play is also called "shadow play". This is an ancient form of storytelling and entertainment, which uses opaque characters in front of an illuminated background to create the illusion of moving images. It is a form of drama, in which the actors hold human figures carved with colored paintings on animal skins and reflect them on the curtain through lights. Under the control of the actors, they sing and dance with music of stringed instruments and gongs and drums, and interpret a series of stories. It is widely circulated in most areas of China except Tibet and Xinjiang, and the styles of shadow play vary from place to place. However, the characterization and performance skills are superb, and the themes of the drama include ancient China magic, mythology, religion, monarch, case-solving, war, talented people and beautiful women, secular life and so on. . .
