He learned shadow puppet performance from his father in childhood. After his father passed away 11 years ago, Li Wei took over the task of developing and innovating the art of Jinan puppet show. Since last summer, Li has kept on presenting traditional shadow puppet plays at the Baihuazhou scenic area in Jinan every weekend for free. [Photo/Xinhua]
