	abstract = {First, Wayang Potehi was brought by the Chinese to Java in the 16th century. At that time, the Chinese ethnic risked a new life for the opportunity to trade. This opportunity became an opening window forthem to bring a new culture to Indonesia. Wayang Potehi continues to grow and is well received by Indonesian society, especially those in Java, Semarang City. Through literature review and participantobservation, the authors found that Wayang Potehi became a successful form of acculturation of Chinese culture and Javanese culture. This Wayang successfully combines stories from Chinese and Indonesian. In addition, Wayang Potehi has succeeded in adaptingitself to using the local language, so that people can easily understand and accept the presence of a new culture. Through the eyes of Bhikhu Parekh, the author sees that Wayang Potehi is a successful form of multiculturalism in Semarang City. On the other hand, through the eyes of Clifford Geertz, Wayang Potehi became a symbol of Chinese ethnic and Javanese ethnic identity that lives in peaceful harmony. This is a matter of pride for Semarang City and Indonesia as a region that has a diversity of ethnic groups but still has the rhythm and dynamics of living together in harmony },
