Electric 'wayang' performance

This is a correction to "Wayang performance shows art in new light" (The Jakarta Post, March 26, 1999).

The March 13 premiere of the performance Wayang listrik -- Tirtha Amertha (Electric Wayang -- Holy Water) was sponsored by the Dyatmika Sekar Bawana foundation. The Dyatmika Elementary School (SD) is not "particularly for expatriate children" but rather an Indonesian, bilingual school. As a nonprofit foundation committed to Indonesian and Balinese arts, SD Dyatmika has held three benefits featuring a cultural performance. This year, the school raised funds for its Wantilan, a traditional structure to be used for performing arts, sports and assemblies.

As Dyatmika SD aims to be a model school on the island of Bali, we would be delighted if the Post would feature more about our unique education offerings and approaches, including our cultural arts and environmental program.
