Tour Scotland Video Punch and Judy Show Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland video of a Punch and Judy Show before the Christmas Lights Switch On in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. The Punch and Judy show has roots in the 16th-century Italian commedia dell'arte. The figure of Punch derives from the Neapolitan stock character of Pulcinella, which was anglicized to Punchinello. He is a manifestation of the Lord of Misrule and Trickster figures of deep-rooted mythologies. Punch's wife was originally called Joan.
