Sanggit

Sanggit is a word used in Javanese wayang (puppet theatre) to describe innovations in the traditional story. The origins of the word are obscure, but it is commonly also simply called anggit. Puppeteers in wayang, dalang, say that all performances must have sanggit, though there is a wide discrepancy about how much or what kind of sanggit is acceptable in the 1,000-year-old puppet tradition.
