Punch and Judy is a traditional puppet show that originated in Italy and became popular in England. The performance features a comical and often chaotic storyline centered around the character Mr. Punch, a mischievous and slapstick figure known for his distinctive voice and exaggerated actions. The show typically includes other characters like Judy, Punch's wife, and various villains, all portrayed through colorful puppets. The puppets are manipulated by a puppeteer, often from behind a small stage called a booth. The performances are characterized by humor, physical comedy, and lively music, making them entertaining for audiences of all ages. Over the years, Punch and Judy has become a symbol of British seaside entertainment.
