We are proud to bring a troupe of 14 performers to perform at Selat Panjang, Indonesia. Selat Panjang is a village located approximately 5hrs of ferry journey from Singapore.
As we have to perform to the Indonesian officials and the villagers right in front of the temple on that very night, performers started to rehearse and getting ready for the night performance upon arrival.
Our stilt walkers stole the limelight the moment they stepped out from the house.
Other shows including body balancing act, cultural dance, amazing blowing and sword swallowing skills and juggling acts.
It was an unforgettable night as we were surprised that the CNY ambience in Selat Panjang was far more stronger than back home.
On the next day, we started our parade from 6.30am (Singapore time) onwards. There were 10 over pit stops to perform and we ended the parade at 3.30pm. Though we were all very tired, the villagers' hospitality had kept us going. All performers put up their best show to repay their warm welcome.
With so many villagers riding bikes chasing us wherever we went,we really felt like superstars. It was indeed an unforgettable experience for everyone of us! At the end of the day, we are glad that we have brought smiles not only to the villagers and our clients, but also our talents.
