Opera dei Pupi is a traditional form of puppet theater originating from Sicily, Italy. It features intricately crafted marionettes that perform stories based on chivalric tales, particularly those of Charlemagne and his knights. The performances are characterized by their vibrant costumes, dramatic storytelling, and live music. This art form has deep cultural roots and is recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage. The puppeteers, known as pupari, skillfully manipulate the puppets, bringing them to life in captivating shows that often include themes of honor, love, and conflict.
