How Dragons Come Alive

Those fearsome, fire-breathing creatures that crop up in myths around the world take different forms in different cultures. Two theatre companies - from China and from Scotland - are putting on a show together, and using dragon puppets to tell the story of a teenage boy who's lost his way, and his voice, grieving for his mother's death. It's called 'Dragon'.

Pooneh Ghoddoosi talks to two of the people involved,... Shihui Wang (She-whey Weng) - associate producer at the National Theatre of Scotland, and Zhang Kai (Jung Kai) - actor and puppeteer from The Tianjin Children's Art Theatre.
