* 皮影戏, ''píyĭngxì'' is a shadow theatre that uses leather puppets. The figures are usually moved behind a thin screen. It is not entirely a show of shadows, as the shadow is more of a silhouette. This gives the figures some color on the screen; they are not 100% black and white.
* 纸影戏, ''zhĭyĭngxì'' is paper shadow theatre.
* 中国影戏, ''Zhōngguó yĭngxì'' is Chinese shadow theatre.
