An all-night session of storytelling, shadow-puppetry and music celebrates the return of the gamelan to Southbank Centre. Javanese master puppeteer Ki Purbo Asmoro, vocalist Sukesi, Southbank Gamelan Players and Associate Artist Rahayu Supanggah come together to create this special event. Based on an episode from the Mahabharata epic, the play follows the Javanese tradition of incorporating contemporary characters and themes, including a specially commissioned puppet of the Royal Festival Hall itself. This event is part of Saving Paradise, a weekend of cross-site events in celebration of, and dedication to, our planet. The weekend focuses on ecology, climate change and our environment, through artistic encounter, exchange and participation. Please note this is an overnight event ending at approximately 7am, with informal, unreserved seating. Javanese with English translation.
