Sumunaring Abhayagiri at Ratu Boko
There are no translations available.
A contemporary piece of Javanese dance, the Sumunaring Abhayagiri, is performed at the Ratu Boko archeological site and tells the story of a royal family in a spectacular setting.
Hundreds of performers tell the tale of the adventures of two princely brothers, and their interactions with the local Boko community. The innate Javanese wisdom of the elders shines throughout, and the concept understanding one’s natural place in the world is explored.
Developed in conjunction with the State University of Yogyakarta’s department of dance, this is a truly modern, and youthful spectacular. It maintains the traditional values of Javanese dance, including expressing moral principles as a way of education.
The performances are held each June, contact the Visitor Assistance Centre for further information.
