Celebrating its 10th Anniversary, the No Strings Attached International Puppetry Festival 2026 continues its mission of bringing the world's most inspiring puppetry artists to Singapore.
This milestone edition embraces the theme "Beyond Borders and Strings", inviting audiences to discover how puppetry transcends language, culture and borders through the universal power of storytelling.
This year’s No Strings Attached International Puppetry Festival, audiences can experience a remarkable line-up of internationally acclaimed puppeteers from Korea, Iran, Indonesia and Thailand, each presenting a distinctive puppetry tradition and artistic language rarely seen in Singapore. From poetic visual theatre and innovative object manipulation to shadow puppetry, traditional storytelling and contemporary puppet-making techniques, every performance offers a unique window into the culture, history and imagination of its home country.
Designed for children and families, the festival creates opportunities for young audiences to explore different cultures through engaging visual narratives that go beyond spoken language. Each production celebrates the creativity and craftsmanship of puppetry while encouraging curiosity, empathy and cross-cultural understanding.
