Bunraku Bunraku is a form of traditional Japanese puppet theater. Bunraku was originally the name of the theater in which this puppet drama was performed, but gradually it came to be used as the name of the art itself. In Europe and the Americas, the term "Bunraku" is often used among puppeteers to describe puppets that are manipulated in a way similar to those in traditional Japanese Bunraku theater. The Bunraku puppets are made with wooden heads and hands covered with gofun and delicately painted. They are richly clothed and range in size from two-and-a-half to four feet tall or more.
