TRAFALGAR SHORES

This summer, Trafalgar Square is being transformed into a huge open-air playground on certain days. On Sun 11 Jul, the Vietnam National Puppetry Theatre returns to the capital for the first time in 10 years.

Using a specially designed theatre tank, this traditional and spectacular Vietnamese water puppetry is a real delight. Naval battles, fire-breathing dragons and other amazing spectacles are part of the show. Miss it and you may have to wait another 10 years.
