A survey of the choreutic-dramatic actions with statues and / or puppets present in the Sicilian festivals. These are puppets representing "giants" (saints or founding heroes), "animals" (camel, snake, horse) and "wild men" or statues of the Crucifix and the Madonna with the articulated arms that are used during the festive rituals in Sicilia. These animated figures represent a unique cultural model that combines play, theater, parties and religion.
