| Description | Klithik form wayang puppetry gets its name from the sound the puppets make—klithik–klithik—when the puppeteer (dalang) performs. The puppet bodies are carved from thin wood while their arms are made from leather. Wayang klithik performances do not use a screen, and the audience directly faces the puppeteer. Performances are accompanied by a small ensemble of gamelan orchestra instruments—namely, kendang (drums), saron, ketuk, kenong, kecer, rebab, and kempul. | ||

Pertunjukan Teater Wayang(Wayang Puppet Theatre)
Wayang, the traditional puppetry and drama performance art of Indonesia, is an original masterpiece demonstrating the Indonesian people's creative genius. Wayang has existed and developed in myriad styles and forms In Indonesia over at least a millennium. This can be seen in the 12th-century Old Javanese text Arjuna Wiwaha, which describes a ringgit or wayang performance. Some styles of wayang became extremely sophisticated and took on epic proportions as aristocratic entertainment, but wayang later became known and loved by all segments of society. Currently, there are more than 60 varieties or styles (gagrak) of Indonesian wayang. Some styles such as Wayang Kulit Purwa of Java use two-dimensional leather puppets. These are intricately hand-cut and finely perforated, painted and gold leafed, held against a screen (kelir) by the dalam (puppeteer) illuminated with a lamp, producing moving shadows.
