5. The bow. The back string is very important in playing. Since it leads to the marionette’s center of gravity, the puppeteer can create very expressive positions with it.
6. If, as in this case, the arm jibs are adjusted appropriately, head, body, arms and hands will move in tune with each other – only by turning the control bar and holding the back string.
7. Crawling. Again, the control bar is turned, and at the same time the leg pendulum is moved with your thumb.
