Summary

Description
English: Wayang orang is one of the traditional Javanese performing arts, especially Central Java. The story played is based on the story of the Mahabharata and Ramayana which contains moral messages. In addition to traditional theatrical performances, wayang orang is also filled with ballet.

The puppets are very old. The Wimalasmara inscription (930 AD) and the Balitung inscription (907 AD) have called this performance the Old Javanese term, wayang wwang. Evidence that this art already existed in the days of Ancient Mataram. After that preserved the new kingdoms that emerged in East Java, including Majapahit.

Long forgotten, wayang wwang revived the Surakarta and Yogyakarta courts, two kingdoms that emerged from the division of Mataram in the Giyanti Treaty in 1755.
Bahasa Indonesia: Wayang orang merupakan salah satu seni pertunjukan tradisional Jawa, khususnya Jawa Tengah. Cerita yang dimainkan didasarkan pada kisah Mahabharata dan Ramayana yang mengandung pesan-pesan moral. Selain bentuk pertunjukan teater tradisional, wayang orang juga diisi dengan sendratari.

Wayang orang berusia sangat tua. Prasasti Wimalasmara (930 M) dan Prasasti Balitung (907 M) telah menyebut pertunjukan ini dengan istilah Jawa Kuno, wayang wwang. Bukti bahwa kesenian ini sudah ada pada zaman Mataram Kuno. Setelah itu dilestarikan kerajaan-kerajaan baru yang muncul di Jawa Timur, termasuk Majapahit.

Setelah lama terlupakan, wayang wwang dihidupkan kembali keraton Surakarta dan Yogyakarta, dua kerajaan yang muncul dari pembagian Mataram dalam Perjanjian Giyanti pada 1755.
