English: Wayang, the shadow puppets prevalent in Java and Bali, is an Indonesian theatrical performance which displays only the shadow instead of the figures itself. Wayang is practised not only on Java and Bali, but also on the islands of Lombok, Madura, Sumatra and Borneo. The stories are usually drawn from the Ramayana, the Mahabharata or the Serat Menak. Wayang, the Javanese word for puppet, also connotes "spirit". Performances are typically accompanied by gamelan music. The Wayang Puppet Theatre was designated by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity on 7 November, 2003.
日本語: ワヤン・クリ（ワヤンとも）は、インドネシアのジャワ島やバリ島で行われる、人形を用いた伝統的な影絵芝居、またそれに使われる操り人形を指す。ガムランの伴奏をつけてヒンズー寺院での祭りなどで行われ、インドの古代叙事詩「マハーバーラタ」や「ラーマーヤナ」などが演じられる。ワヤン（Wayang）は影を、クリ（Kulit）は皮を意味する。ユネスコは2003年11月7日、世界無形遺産保護条約で保護すべき候補に認定した。
