| Abstract | The reformulation of Wayang performances into Wayang Climen has provided a fresh avenue for urban audiences to access tradition-based entertainment, which plays a crucial role in the transmission of cultural knowledge and values. After limited performance opportunities due to COVID-19 restrictions, puppeteers are now vying to put on elaborate performances. However, such performances are often expensive, space-intensive, and lengthy, making them inaccessible for urban communities with restricted resources. This study explores how puppeteers have reimagined performances by streamlining their duration, reducing venue requirements, and narrowing thematic focus to retain the essence of traditional Wayang while making it accessible to urban audiences. Employing a qualitative case study approach, this research examined "Wargo Laras," group in Yogyakarta. Data collection methods included observations of performances and in-depth interviews. The findings indicate that Wayang Climen have successfully redefined traditional Wayang by adopting a more flexible structure and maximizing available performance elements within compact settings. |
