Abstract
In Java theatre, dance and music always were prominent features of life both at Court and in the country. Most festive occasions were celebrated with theatrical performances, processions, pageants and dances. Music was heard everywhere and at all times of day and night. In modern times business and time-bound work replaced light-hearted joyfulness such as still survives partly in Bali.
