Wayang Bali - Balinese Shadow Play | SF’s Yerba Buena Gardens Festival 2025Wayang Bali, the Balinese shadow play, is one of the most exciting undiscovered events of world theater.
Larry Reed and ShadowLight’s gamelan musicians make it possible for western audiences to enjoy this classical form of storytelling. Plots for the shadow play are drawn from the Mahabharata myth cycle, in which five brothers are pitted against one hundred jealous cousins in a struggle for power involving gods, demons, magical weapons, and the inevitable beautiful princess.
