The play was enjoyable. The traditional music was an added bonus. I would highly recommend using the audio translator.

The water puppet show was interesting - the way they could control and move the puppets on/under water was amazing to watch. The show is for 50mins which is the perfect duration for this. Any longer and people would get bored.
Some tips:
1. Audio guide is a must or you won’t understand what’s going on.
2. Take the VIP tickets which is the first 4 rows or it’s too far to see the tiny puppets. The first row is the best.
3. If you are booking online, the tickets are very expensive. I paid nearly 60% extra on Tripadvisor. The other sites like booking.com were charging nearly double. Also you won’t be able to select which row or which seat when you book online. I saw many people book directly at the theatre on the day they land in Hanoi and they could choose their seats at the counter. This seems to be a better option.
A few things they should do better.
1. Stop allowing people after the show starts. Many people came in 10mins late and made others get up while they got to their seats. Very bad.
2. Ask people not to record. Many people just held up their phones to record the show for extended durations. This obstructs the view (which is not great to begin with). Yet another reason to get the first couple of rows.
