So far the Wayang Beber story has always been attached to the epic meeting of Dewi Sekartaji and Panji Asmarabangun. This affects the narrative of Wayang Beber’s stories in the end monotonous and boring. Many efforts have been made to contemporary wayang, one of them is by modifying wayang stories that describe the circumstances of people’s lives. Wayang Beber Kota tells stories that address current issues. This research will analyze the social problems reflected in Wayang Beber Kota’s performance of the play “Suluk Banyu”. The qualitative methods with a descriptive approach were used to examine this research.Dialogue between characters, puppeteer monologues, and various other related components are used as primary data sources and interviews as secondary data sources. The findings from the results of this research study WBK’s Social Problems The play “Suluk Banyu” is divided into several points, namely economic problems (including problems implement poverty alleviation and people’s welfare programs), political problems (including problems with bribery, abuse of power), social problems (including poverty, the gap between the authorities and the general public).
