Hajivat & Karagoz became popular in the Ottoman times. The two are the main characters of the traditional Turkish shadow play. Hajivat and Karagoz are amazing to bring family and friends together. There are so much to learn from them whilst we enjoy and laugh at them.
I have spent time gathering from few resources to prepare this traditional play. I have had to change, amend, translate and rephrase some parts. I have demonstrated and played this play to young children and they have really enjoyed it at my child’s pre school. Excellent to use on cultural week at primary schools and even Secondary. The play is approximately 5-6 pages long (Microsoft Word) and the play lasts approximately 15-20 mins (dependant on your speed).
The script is affordable and could be reused.
