What is Wayang Kulit: Ancient Puppet Theatre about?
Wayang Kulit is one of the oldest forms of puppet theatre, originating in Java over a thousand years ago, influenced by local beliefs and Hindu-Buddhist philosophy. The performances feature stories from Hindu epics, with themes of good vs. evil and the human life cycle, narrated by a dalang who controls intricately designed puppets made from water buffalo skin. The production includes music from a gamelan orchestra and special songs to enhance the storytelling experience.
