Touring directly from Indonesia, back by popular demand, Cultural Infusion is once again proud to present Dalang (master Shadow Puppeteer) – Sumardi.

Give students a wonderful insight into the myths and legends of Indonesian history and culture! The Wayang Kulit is a theatrical shadow play based on the Hindu folklore ‘The Legend of Ramayana and Mahabharata”. Through intricate shadow puppetry, this traditional art form brings to life the ancestral spirits said to swell inside the puppets. Students are given an opportunity to watch the shadow puppetry from both sides of the screen to experience the magic behind this ancient art form.

Availability: Sumardi will be touring Australia-wide, including metropolitan and regional areas, from October-November 2026. Enquire to register your interest today!
