There are long poles connecting the ballerinas to the dolls, they’re placed on the legs and arms of the puppets so every time the ballerinas move, the dolls mimic them.

This is so unique, whoever thought of it is a genius! I wonder how many dolls this would work with, they should try to do this with more that would be so funny.

Dancing is already hard enough, this takes some major upper-body and leg strength

These ballerinas are amazing, how do they keep going for so long? This takes some serious fitness, I bet they practice all the time.

At one point the ballerinas ‘raise the roof,’ of course, the dolls follow suit

Every movement they make is mirrored by the puppets, so when the ballerinas ‘raise the roof’ the dolls do the same. The audience bursts with laughter with every gesture, most of them have probably never seen this before.

Toward the end of the video, the dancers spin on a pivot with all 6 dolls swinging around

For the grand finale, the comical ballerinas whip the dolls around in a 360-degree turnover and over again. Good thing they’re puppets, or else the final act may have given them whiplash!
