      Description


      In English

      This dance is based on the story of two brothers, the Kings – Subali and Sugriwa, who were turned into monkeys. The two lived in peace until they both desired a black magic brought by Dewi Anjani. Dewi Anjani’s father threw this magic into a river that transforms humans into monkeys. Subali and Sugriwa not realizing this jumped into the river and were transformed into monkeys. Not recognizing each other, they fought. Neither brother won the fight but finally they recognized each other and were sad.

      In Indonesian

      Tarian ini didasarkan pada kisah dua bersaudara, Raja – Subali dan Sugriwa, yang berubah menjadi kera. Keduanya hidup dalam damai hingga keduanya menginginkan ilmu hitam yang dibawa oleh Dewi Anjani. Ayah Dewi Anjani melemparkan sihir ini ke sungai yang mengubah manusia menjadi kera. Subali dan Sugriwa tidak menyadarinya melompat ke sungai dan menjelma menjadi kera. Tidak saling mengenal, mereka berkelahi. Tidak ada saudara yang memenangkan pertarungan tetapi akhirnya mereka saling mengenali dan diliputi kesedihan.
