MAK YONG TEXT
Traditionally, there are no actual written scripts for the Mak
Yong Theatre.
The texts, referring to scripts and songs, are handed down orally,
similar to most Asian traditional theatre.
However, when Mak Yong was adopted into the academia, scripts
began to exist mainly for teaching and studying purposes.
There are two textual concepts in the play. 'Ucap Tetap are fixed
dialogues whereby the texts are standardised in all the plays
utilising old classic Kelantanese language and is not colloquial.
The other textual concept are non-standardised dialogues and
songs that could be varied by the actors.
The latter textual concept could consist of simpler texts based on
current street language which is less formal in nature.

The End
The performance structure here refers to the narrative
of the play which excludes Buka Panggung and Tutup
Panggung which are standardised performance rituals.
The Buka Panggung are not necessarily an opened
performance for the public. It is much more elaborated
compared to Tutup Panggung in which the audience
get to view but may not necessarily comprehend.
MAK YONG SONG
Music in Mak Yong consists of songs - accompanied vocal,
and purely instrumental music.
The songs function to explain the content of the Mak
Yongs narrative, introducing the characters and various
dramatic and theatrical elements.
Instrumental music is purely incidental to portray various
dramatic moods as well as accompaniment to various
dances.
The opening music known as Lagu Bertabuh, functions as
an overture, a form of instrumental warm up and
indication of the beginning of the performance - a call to
performance.

influenced by and related to the natural environment as
well as its surroundings.

of Makyung movement repertoire as listed below:
Duduk bersila tangan sembah (Anjali)
Tangan susun sirih
Tangan burung terbang
Tangan gajah lambung belalai
Tangan ular sawa mengorak lingkaran
Tangan seludang menolak mayang
Tangan sulur memain angin
Tangan liuk kiri longlai ke kanan
Berdiri di tapak tiga mengadap ke timur jaga
Tangan sirih layah dijunjung
Kirat penghabisan
Langkah turun dari kayangan
Langkah naik ke kayangan
