Opera Dei Pupi (Rod Marionette Theatre)

In Palermo, you can visit the Museo Internazionale delle Marionette - the International Marionette Museum - to see some of the historic marionettes on display. The museum also has puppets from other parts of the world, and - at the end of the tour - you’ll have a chance to see a brief puppet show. It’s all in Italian and Sicilian dialect, but it’s a delight to see even if you don’t understand a word. Ask at the ticket window about the schedule for the puppet shows, so you can plan your visit to the museum around seeing one.
