Description A different version of role play is to use puppets, which are not directly linked to a specific person and can be controlled by the puppeteer. 'What is important is the credibility of both the storyline and the puppet' says Chris Doorman, a Dutch teacher and puppeteer. He has drawn three lessons from puppet plays in Ethiopia and Zimbabwe. First, the spectator needs to be able to identify with the characters being played. Secondly, it is important to take into account the visual experience of people in the audience. 'People who are used to watching television can easily fill up the space between two plays for themselves. But for other people, you need to structure the whole puppet show to have well-timed sequences.' And finally, the puppets should not try to sort out all the problems. 'Try as they may, they will never be able to persuade fisher people displaced from Tanga in Zimbabwe that one day they will become farmers.'
