Kecak Dance at Pura Dalem

This is the only cultural performance I wanted to see again. I had already seen this twice. This time round, however, it was different. Audience participation was incorporated into the performance, and this jarred me a little. In past performances I attended, the performers barely acknowledged the audience. Not this time. Also, the performers were in a trance in my previous performances and they were led out of it by a priest. This time round, it looked as if only the fire walker was in a trance. Overall this was a letdown for me. It felt less authentic.
