Know MoreKamishibai became popular in Japan during the 1920s and 1930s as a form of street entertainment.
It is a traditional Japanese storytelling art form that translates to 'paper theatre'. It combines visual storytelling with oral narration, making it a captivating medium for sharing stories with both children and adults.
Kamishibai involves a storyteller (the kamishibaiya) who uses illustrated cards placed in a small wooden stage or frame called a butai. The storyteller slides the cards in and out of the frame, revealing colourful illustrations while narrating the story. Each card typically has an illustration on the front and text on the back, guiding the storyteller through the plot.
