TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Wayang golek performances depicting the classic epics of Mahabarata and Ramayana were shown at the 2017 World Puppet Festival in Charleville-Mézières Ardennes in France. The Sundanese Arts Foundation of Golek Putra Giri Harja 3 (PGH3) operated the puppets in the festival that was held from September 16 to 24.

The PGH3 is also scheduled to perform in Lyon on September 27 and 28.
