It was in this epic setting that King Rahwana comes to power in a land known as Alengka. While King Rahwana had enormous wealth and power there was one prize that he did not have in his kingdom. It had come to the King’s attention that in another land there existed a very beautiful woman by the name of Sita wife of Rama. King Rahwana successfully kidnaps the beautiful Sita leaving Rama and his lands sad and suffering great despair. Rama and Hanoman on their journey to rescue the forlorn Sita from King Rahwana, find the village people of Dandaka’s Forest, a community of peace loving people who have been corrupted by the evil giant soldiers of King Rahwana. Through his evil influence these people lived an unhappy existence based on drinking and gambling. These people had lost their roots and had lost touch with their true destinies.  In response to the sadness of these evicted people, Rama decides to send in General Hanoman and his monkey soldiers, to attack the giant soldiers of King Rahwana and save the evicted people. Together Rama and Hanoman ride into battle upon their war elephants to do battle with the giant soldiers and King Rahwana.  This is no doubt one of the most beautiful stories that has been told and retold over the centuries from father to son and mother to daughter. It lives as an epic in the wonderful culture of Bali and the Hindu religion. Please sit back and relax while our performers act out the tale for you.
