Wayang kulit show in my town






Wayang kulit show in wedding party is usually different in other ceremonies. The difference is what the 'lakon' ( scene / story ) to be played because 'lakon' could suggested that party or ceremony will be as same as the tragedy in the 'lakon' was choosen by. In wedding party, the lakon usually to be played is like : 'Sumbadra larung ' , this lakon told about desire and love between raden Arjuna to dewi Sumbadra. Or another story have been took from ramayana epic as kind lakon 'Shinta boyong', this lakon told about how difficult Rama to got back his wife,dewi Shinta, from Rahwana the king at Alengkadiraja.

While the mothers is getting to born their children, wayangkulit show have played too. in this ceremony the lakon that usually to be played is like : lakon 'Gathotkaca lahir' or lakon 'Bima lahir' , boths of those lakons told about the birth of Gathotkaca and Bima.

In ceremonies ( 'bersih desa' or an opening new office etc.) lakon have been played is free except for 'lakon wingit'. Lakon 'wingit' ( wingit is scream or horribly ) might made earhtquake or another horribly of the nature.
