What is a light curtain?

Not to be confused with blacklight puppets - which us neon/glow-in-the-dark paints and UV lighting - a light curtain is a way of creating a performance where the puppets are visible, but the puppeteers are not.

A video example of this technique is shown at the bottom of the post.
