About
After two sold-out shows in Kuala Lumpur last year, KL Festival is excited to welcome Wayang Women back after touring to Bali - this time for a special performance at Dataran Merdeka on 16 May.
Blending humour, folklore, and Wayang Kulit, Wayang Women reimagines ghost stories from across Malaysia and the region with a playful twist. Expect your usual hantu(s) - Pontianak, Penanggal and a new mysterious ghost to amuse and entertain while exploring issues affecting us currently.
The troupe brings together musicians from across Southeast Asia and the Netherlands, creating a rich sonic landscape where traditional instruments from different regions of Southeast Asia intertwine with contemporary electronic music.
Bring your friends and family to enjoy this free performance under the night sky.
