Wayang is famous for its intricate and orchestrated performances and this ancient form of storytelling originates from the island of Java in Indonesia. The term puppet, comes from the Indonesian word for “shadow”. Wayang kulit using figures made of buffalo skin, is considered to be the oldest independent form of wayang, the earliest reference to this type of wayang dating back to the 800s.

King Airlangga (1035–1049) wrote: “There are people who cry, are sad, and are moved by the sight of wayang, even though they know that it is just pieces of carved leather that are manipulated and made to speak. These people are like men who are thirsty for sensual pleasures, living in a world of illusion; they don’t realize the magical hallucinations they see aren’t real.”
