UNESCO has recognized Mak Yong’s Theatre as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) of Humanity since September 2005. Currently, there is a lack of existing collection on ICH in Malaysia, especially of the performing art heritage at the national information agencies. There is a significant need to urgently safeguarding this ancient theatre to keep them alive. The objectives of this research are to explore the undocumented stories of Mak Yong performing art theatre in Malaysia and to develop a new technique of information packaging in documenting the untold stories of the Mak Yong theatre.
