Adapted by Musra Dahrizal
Directed by Kirstin Pauka
A daughter seeks revenge for the murder of her father in this exciting folk dance-drama. Randai comes from the Minangkabau ethic group in Sumatra, Indonesia, and features beautiful traditional music and singing, martial arts, dance and acting; and its signature pants-slapping percussion! Onstage seating available on a first-come first-serve basis at the performance to all ticket holders.
A special "mahalo nui" to guest teachers from Indonesia.
