Virtual Experience: Wayang Kulit For Dummies

Hosted by Lylatul & Shufitri - Art Enthusiasts


Hello!! Apa khabar? (“How are you?”) My name is Lyla, born in Batu Pahat, Johor and I wo... rk closely with my awesome colleague, Shufitri who was born in Sungai Petani, Kedah. Both of us currently live in KL and working for Persatuan Kakiseni, a registered non-profit for the promotion of arts and culture in Malaysia. We are dedicated towards building a sustainable arts industry in Malaysia through programmes that enrich artists and develop audience appreciation for the arts. As an organisation, we also advocate the value of art and culture in Malaysia and champion new ways of bringing artists and organisations together to create enriching and creative experiences for all. Writing is my passion and I have published a dark humor book called 'Tending to Your Miseries' with an illustrator in 2018. Hence, I am so fortunate that I am working with Shufitri as he is an illustrator, actor/director, model and someone who also does embroidery as part of his art! We are very proud to be able to host this virtual experience as we are eager to share the knowledge and story behind the art form of Wayang in a simplistic manner to entice and excite non-practitioners to learn and care that will result in preservation of this amazing culture in Malaysia. We hope to connect and built the relationship with children, educators, community and practitioners both locally and internationally! See you soon. Show More

What we Will do

Traditional performing art like Wayang Kulit can be hard to understand especially when it is performed in Kelantanese dialect. Today, the art form is diminishing but its significance as a means of entertainment infused with local culture and traditions back in the days is evermore profound now.

Given the current pandemic situation, we are adapting to the 'new norm' and curated a virtual live experience to share the history and beauty of this art form from the comfort of your home!

Through this virtual live experience, our guests will get to:

  1. Know the origin and influences of Wayang Kulit Kelantan in Malaysia
  2. Learn the elements of Wayang Kulit
  3. Know the music instruments used by the troupe
  4. Identify general characteristics of puppets from other countries
  5. Understand the importance of the art form

We will also guide you to make a simple 'pohon beringin' using the materials that you need to prepare in advance (see details in the 'what to bring' section)

Join us for a fun and meaningful interactive experience. With the knowledge gained from this experience, your friends and family can now plan with the shadow to communicate a story!

This virtual experience is available on every Thursday, at 7.30pm, Malaysia time (GMT+8). Weekends session can be arranged upon special request.
