Punch and Judy!

Punch and Judy is a traditional, popular puppet show featuring Mr. Punch and his wife, Judy. Each performance consists of a sequence of short scenes, usually depicting only two characters, typically Punch and one other.

The Punch and Judy show has roots in the 16th-century Italian comedy. The figure of Punch is a manifestation of the Lord of Misrule, seen in Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dam", and oher 'trickster' figures of mythology.

May 9th, 1662 is traditionally reckoned as Punch's birthday. In the British Punch and Judy show, Punch wears a brightly coloured jester's motley and sugarloaf hat with a tassel. He is a hunchback whose hooked nose almost meets his curved, jutting chin. He carries a stick (a paddle) as large as himself, which he freely uses upon most of the other characters in the show. He speaks in a distinctive squawking voice, transmitting his gleeful cackle. This gives Punch a vocal quality as though he were speaking through a kazoo.

The characters in a Punch and Judy show are similar to the cast of a soap opera or a folk tale like Robin Hood. While the principal characters must appear, the lesser characters are included at the discretion of the performer. Along with Punch and Judy, the cast of characters usually includes their baby, a hungry crocodile, a clown, and an officious policeman.

Punch was extremely popular in Paris, and, by the end of the 18th century, he was also playing in Britain's American colonies, where even George Washington bought tickets for a show. These shows might travel through country towns or move from corner to corner along busy London streets, giving many performances in a single day.
