'MARI KITA MAIN WAYANG' (LET'S STAGE A PLAY) is a play within a play. Performed in Peranakan patois, it pokes fun, in good taste at a group of Babas who try to put up a play; entitled, "ENAM BINI" (SIX WIVES), this story is about an imaginary Baba King who keeps one concubine after another as he longs to get a son. Although the sixth concubine finally delivers a male child, surprises are in store for the king, the queen, as well as the concubine.
