Gamelan Wayang Kulit
A striking performance of the ancient art of Javanese shadow puppet drama accompanied by a full Gamelan ensemble, with story derived from Indian and Javanese epics. The interplay of sung and spoken text, intricate shadows cast by the puppets and the beautiful music from the gamelan create an atmospheric and memorable experience. The Dhalang (puppet master) directs the performance, becomes the voices of the characters and manipulates the puppets with consummate skill. Admission free
