WAYANG KLITHIK, RELUCTANT TO LIVE, BUT NOT WILLING TO DIE
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.
