Museum in Olinda brings together a collection of typically Brazilian puppets, the mamulengos
Do you know what a mamulengo is? If you are from the Northeast of the country, you should know; if you are from other regions, you must know him as a puppet. Mamulengo is a doll, usually made of cloth and wood, which can be worn by hand to make small plays. In Pernambuco, it is very traditional and part of popular culture – so much so that it won a special museum!
Espaço Tiridá – Mamulengo Museum, in Olinda, brings together a huge collection of typically northeastern puppets from various periods. There you will meet a lot of curious characters from popular theaters. There are, of course, Lampião and Maria Bonita; the priest; the mourners (who are paid to cry at the funerals of others) and Tiridá, a funny boy, who always speaks in rhymes, and gives the museum its name. There are so many interesting and colorful dolls that you leave there wanting to play!
