OLD-TIME STREES, presented by Ali Nihat YAVŞAN, is a play designed to introduce and endear our traditional shadow play to all ages, especially children.

After the dialogue section, the main play begins.

The play, which features string puppets and shadow characters, takes place both on a shadow screen and on a puppet stage.

The play begins when İbiş, wandering through Old-Time Street, hears the voice of Bekçi Baba, who is in pursuit of a thief.<
While chatting on the shadow-puppet screen, Hacivat and Karagöz begin their usual banter. Growing bored of the shadow-puppet stage, Karagöz asks the Master to send him somewhere else. The Master sends him to "Old-Time Street" as a string puppet, suggesting that he find a job and make a life for himself there.
Karagöz suddenly finds himself in the midst of the events taking place on Old Times Street.

At the end of the play, a short workshop is held to introduce the audience to the puppet and shadow characters.

Enjoy watching..
