Like Laurel and Hardy, the clowns are of two types. The first to enter, the punta, has the higher position of the two. He struts on stage beaming of self-importance as purveyor of his master's glory. He is followed by his delinquent younger brother, kartala, who, in all his attempts to be as pompous as his brother, falters in absurdity. This burlesque, sprinkled with off-color jokes, can hold an audience in laughter for hours.
Clowns are favorites of the Balinese drama.
