Abstract
Wayang Kali is structured as a wayang kulit shadow play, but a traditional gamelan orchestra is replaced by an eclectic ensemble of some of America's leading performers and composers of new and experimental music: Shahdad Ismaily, Evind Kang, Jessika Kennedy, Andrew McGraw and Ches Smith. Text by Goenawan Mohamad is projected, and Kenney sings texs by Jenni Quilter.
For Wayang Kali, we have staged five events that characterize Kali's inolvement in the Mahabarata-birth, deception, battle, grief and revenge. Kali watches over draupadi, the wife of the five Pandawa brothers, as she tell a loyal courtesan Balarama about the insult she suffered; her husband lost her to the Kurawa in a game of dice, and they humiliated her.
