Biglietti per Thang Long Water Puppet Show

Nice to see a local tradition. Good puppetry and music. Just wished we’d looked up the story beforehand! Lasts an hour.

It was amazing! Spend the money for the headset to hear in English if you do not know the language!

This was an interesting look at theatrical Vietnamese culture

I went to the Thang Long Water Puppet show on a rainy Hanoi evening and ended up really enjoying it. The puppets were clever, the live music had that sharp, twangy sound that stuck in your head, and I liked seeing the water splash around the stage. It felt very local and different from the usual tourist stuff. That said, the theater was packed, the seats were a bit cramped, and if you don’t know the stories already, some parts go by fast. The show is also pretty short, so it doesn’t take up much of an evening. Still, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re in Hanoi, just go in expecting a simple cultural stop rather than a big production.

It was a lot of fun. Local music and live performances, and it's very easy to get around.

They are a very talented group of performers. The singers and musicians were obviously very good. We would advise that you do get the audio guide so that you have some idea on the folklore behind the performances. We did appreciate the professionalism that went into the show, but it wasn’t our thing.

One in a Lifetime experiences. And it's worth every single penny. Whenever you have an opportunity to visit Hanoi, you must go to this theatre, and immerse yourself in the suburbs of Vietnam

Fantastic experience.It's worth seeing is something unique with music shock you feel everything from Vietnam!!!

It takes an hour and is a magical Cultural show. Don't go thinking Disney or Broadway, this is a distinctly Vietnamese cultural, traditional show featuring Water Puppets. The theatre is clean and the seats are very comfortable. We thought it a great experience and I would recommend to everyone, but particularly those with young kids.

There is no audio guide included with the ticket price, I was also sat in G16 (everywhere else sold out) and could hardly see a thing! 50 minutes is a long time to watch puppets you can only just see but can’t understand. Good puppetry skills though. Disappointed as expected it to be better.
