Iron Gang Puppet Theatre’s debut production at Petaling Jaya Performing Arts Centre (PJPac) this weekend is one that celebrates a classic folk tale from the region and the values we hold close to our hearts. In this contemporary iron-rod puppetry performance, titled Ibu, the story of Si Tanggang is given a contemporary interpretation.
The original story: After leaving his village and becoming rich and successful, Si Tanggang is ashamed of his humble origins and on a trip back home, refuses to recognise his elderly mother. Heartbroken, she curses him and when he sets sail, he and his ship turn to stone.
