  • Summary

    Dwarfs, or little people, are normal people just like us except for their smaller size and stature. Yet because of this physical difference, they are often alienated and looked down upon by society. Through a series of workshops and eventually performances on Chinese shadow puppetry, we hope to not only instill in dwarfs a set of sustainable and functional skills, but also to better integrate them into society and help the public understand them in a new light.
