Abstract

This paper is the result of observations of the Child Puppet Festival held by Yogyakarta State University in 2018 and 2019. The festival, which is held annually to commemorate Yogyakarta State University’s Dies Natalis, is attended by many child puppeteers from Yogyakarta and its surroundings. Organizing such a festival is very beneficial for various parties. One of the benefits obtained is the avoidance of puppets from the threat of extinction due to modernization that is sweeping the world. This study aims to describe the existence of wayang kulit purwa in the eyes of child puppeteers. The data of this research is the recording of shadow puppets performed by child puppeteers at the children’s puppeteer festival at Yogyakarta State University in 2018 and 2019. This research shows that the puppet show still exists in the eyes of children, seen from the number of participants in the festival even though there are still disparities. Judging from the form of the show, what the child puppeteers display, from the perspective of art education, has not fully adopted the interests of children.
