Mochinosha shadow puppet production at Edinburgh Fringe

Overview

The shadow puppet company Mochinosha, composed of Daniel Wishes and Seri Yanai, is presenting its production ‘Book of Shadows’ at the Edinburgh Fringe.

The performance uses hand-crafted shadow animation, projection, and hundreds of articulated drawings to create a visual style described as having a “hypnotic live-action anime” or “living cartoon” quality. The dark comedy and occult mystery follows a character named Vi, a teenage skeptic who travels to live with her mystic grandmother. The narrative explores the tension between Vi’s scientific upbringing and the presence of a tiny wizard frog that only she can see as she confronts questions regarding magic and reality.
