Last 17-18th April 2015 at Cak Durasim Building, they organized event for Banyuwangi which is "Banyuwangi Sunrise of Java". There were exhibition about products and culinary from Banyuwangi and also there were events at stage which I'm going to show you all of them, so enjoy!
I came with my friends ad we thought that we were late half an hour but the event has just started. The first event was welcoming the regent of Banyuwangi to the stage and then they had the welcoming dance called "Hastungkara"
With purple tone costume they were awesome dancer
Another pictures while they were dancing
After the welcome dance, then the regent of Banyuwangi opened the event with some speech and honestly we didn't pay attention and decided to look around the stands that were opening there. And we accidentally came across the backstage and found out all the participants for that night event and decided to take some pictures with them, although we scared with their costumes but that's what made them unique.
With the "boss" of the Ginny that will be perfuming at "Legend of Gunung Tumpang Pitu"
We moved inside the building for better quality, but this time with one of the Ginny
After taking pictures, we moved to the stage and continue to watch the show. This time's Bedewang dance and this somehow blew my mind because they're maybe my age or younger than me.
The dancer,the beat of this music's pretty happy and fast beat
I finally managed to take the whole dancers because people were so crowded
Next one's different, a traditional song performing called "Isun Lare Osing". I thought it was some kinds of traditional dance again but then the singer came in and this one more like concert.
See the woman at the middle? She's the singer.
And finally we came to the main show that night which was the perfuming art of "Legend of Gunung Tumpang Pitu"
It was once been told that there's a mountain and people around it were living happy and peaceful but then suddenly, the Ginny came and kidnapped them one by one and disturbed people around that mountain.
Peaceful and happy women around the mountain
Suddenly, the Ginnies came and kidnapped them
They came to santri (students that learnt inner power that protect the village around mountain) and asked for their help.
Ginnies felt comfortable there and decided to stay and disturbed the village
But, the santri and their master came and reminded the Ginnies that they had to leave.
The angry Gynnies angry and the fight started between Santri and Gynnies
But Santri were more powerful and beat the Gynnies, but the Gynnies said they wouldn't disturb the village with some conditions and they had met the agreement.
End of story and the is all the casts that played but I couldn't get the clear one because people started to move outside the stage.
It ended pretty fast than the schedule and it was pretty impressive experiences to be there. Next month there will be another events at Cak Durasim so be sure to check it out,people. Until next time,
Let's get lost!
