Abstract

Indonesia is a country that has a variety of cultural arts, one of which is shadow puppetry (Wayang). Wayang, in a staged, simple, and minimalist manner, is called Wayang Climen. Wayang Climen has been performed since the COVID-19 pandemic as a solution to keep working while still complying with health protocols. Utilization through YouTube social media attracts people to watch and provide opinions through comments. This opinion is beneficial and can be used as a feasibility study through sentiment analysis information classified as positive, negative, and neutral opinions. Sentiment analysis determines a person's opinion and tendency to opinionated sentences. The methods used are Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Naïve Bayes (NB). The dataset comes from YouTube comments of Dalang Seno and Ki Seno Nugroho. The best accuracy is generated by SVM (70.29%). The positive sentiment shows the public's appreciation for the Wayang Climen performance, which ultimately represents the performance even though it is staged densely. This research contributes to effectively utilizing digital platforms for cultural preservation and audience engagement during challenging times, demonstrating the potential for innovative solutions in traditional arts and entertainment.
