Although in my heart sometimes made sad by the news I heard from the ground water. But there is a sense of pride, too, occasionally known to come from developing countries. Understandably so far I have always considered to come from poorer countries. But this time I want to tell you is the success achieved wayang kulit troupe led by leading masterminds Purbo Asmoro. The arrival of the shadow puppet troupe in order 'festival de l'imaginaire'. Where some performances coming from several countries doing their performance in Paris.

White screen illuminated by tiny lights create shadows tree carving, puppetry character being played by a live puppeteer. Something that makes the audience captivated. I was amazed that, even children as young as 3 to 5 years is that with enthusiasm, following the puppet show which lasted for 2 hours. They are allowed to go up and down the stage, close look at how Purbo Asmoro famous puppeteer, puppet plays the skin with a changing voice.

The rest of them who came as enthusiastic and interest in wayang kulit want to watch, that's what makes me proud. They eagerly pay 22 euros for a show ticket prices. And of course, those who bought the tickets come because of curiosity and really want to see live puppet show behind the scenes. Some spectators present as it ever come to Indonesia and have seen a puppet show in Java. Can look back like a puppet show for their nostalgia. The rest claimed to come because of curiosity with Indonesian art and not wanting to miss a golden opportunity to directly see the show from leading puppeteer with his entourage. Puppet show in Paris that lasted for 4 days in a in 'Théâtre de Soleil-Cartoucherie'. Where in the arena Cartoucherie there are some great and very unique theater. Upon entering the building from the region Cartocherie theaters this alone makes present the visitor immediately carried away. I captured the picture is a large garden with the presence of several buildings, which is used as a theater. For example, the Théâtre du Soleil, the last shadow puppets, have a soaring roof with iron bars, like a military base. Indeed, this is a once Cartoucherie weapons factory complete with powder for the manufacture of bullets. Since 1970 by Ariane Mnouchkine's factories taken over and made into a theater where he worked with Philippe Leotard, who founded the théâtre du soleil since 1964. Beautiful theater is already making its own charm. We were given a written information that fully explains about the tradition of wayang kulit, gamelan accompaniment, division 3 section of the show that took place, and many other new honest I know exactly when it was. No shame in my heart because new knowledge to grow along with the French audience. Before the event started a committee to explain the course of the show, and whether it is for traditional shadow puppets of Indonesia, especially Java. As he explained, the audience is allowed up and down the stage to see directly behind the screen. Things that make visitors of course very happy to get the chance. Unfortunately, the committee prohibits taking pictures or photos although not using the flash. I was disappointed, too, was made ... Until Friday, the audience response is always the same, enthusiastic and listened attentively. Saturday was the culmination of leather puppet show. Times it is not half-hearted, all-night show with the story of the collapse of the empire Kaurawa played puppeteer. And visitors still full! Some spectators came with the children. Indeed, there are also some spectators who had left the show before it was over. The rest survive and continue to enjoy the event to complete. Something to be proud of. This is the first time the French visitors watched a traditional all-night performances. Of course I felt very touched by the enthusiasm of the French art lovers. And touched the day after the first show, the news of this puppet show appeared in several French media, with the title of the spectacular performances of ancient Javanese tradition.
