(It should be the post of 25 January 2012 for #Lomba10HariNge-Blog FC Blogger NTT T.T)



















Menitikkan air mata untuk sebuah keindahan itu adalah ‘anugerah langka’ (belajarlah mengasah emosi untuk hal yang satu ini, jarang lho semua orang bisa :D ) saat perasaan haru biru itu memenuhi dada hingga memuncak pada tetesan yang menelusuri kedua belah pipi sekiranya berlebihan, maafkan saya.

Mulanya saya hanya ingin mengulas apa yang saya tonton pada 24 January 2012 kemarin. Saat kawan-kawan saya berlibur kemana-mana untuk menghabiskan liburan imlek dan saya diminta untuk in charge mensurvei tamu di Nusa dua theater yang berujung pada kepuasan dan perasaan beruntung bagi saya karena malam itu saya dapat jalan-jalan gratis keliling Indonesia selama satu setengah jam bersama little sister Berdy Riberu^^




Devdan Show merupakan kombinasi dari beberapa bentuk seni termasuk didalamnya; akrobat, kontemporer hip-hop & musik serta tari tradisional yang membantu melestarikan budaya. Pada tempat yang sama memadukan pula kecenderungan seni rupa modern untuk membuat pertunjukan yang dinamis dan menghibur. Kata "devdan" berasal dari bahasa Sansekerta kuno dan itu berarti "hadiah dari Tuhan".






Cerita singkat dari pertunjukkannya dapat dibaca dibawah ini, sengaja saya ngikutin lurus dalam bahasa inggris yang saya temukan di website dan buku panduan pertunjukkannya sekalian buat belajar (bukan saya malas buat mengartikannya,hehe).












Acts Summary - Devdan Show at Bali Nusa Dua Theatre


THE STORY

Along their journey to the islands of Bali, Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Papua, the children encounter life-size puppets, marauding monkeys and torrential rains.

Feel your heart beat with excitement as you encounter gigantic traditional puppets and a enchanted weaving hut with magnificent and brilliantly crafted hi-tech special effects, superb illusions and life defying aerial acrobatics. Explore the genuine heritage and beauty of Indonesia with the show’s contemporary songs and dances, accented by dramatic and thrilling action. This mega production is a “must see” show, truly a “once in a lifetime experience”.


Scene One - Bali

Traditionally, at the end of each harvest the Balinese celebrate a bountiful crop and the children love to fly kites.




The serene sights & sounds of a traditional Balinese village set the stage. Two children from a passing tourist group are lost and find themselves amongst the villagers. The performers celebrate with a rice harvest dance and the flying season for kites. A dramatic end occurs with a Kecak dance the village being engulfed with fire and chaos.






Scene Two - Sumatra

One of the things Sumatra is known for is the beautiful material they produce in endless colors and patterns, it is known as Songket




A silken piece of Batik fabric swallows the children as they disappear beneath its power and they reappear in a small traditional village in Sumatra. Hear and enjoy the sights and sounds of a bustling street market where vendors sell vegetables, fruits, pottery and local wares. Amidst the market, performers play with fiery whips, they juggle and dance for rain. The village weavers create the beautiful Batik fabric with their magical looms.



Scene Three - Java

The traditional ceremonial knife used by the Javanese warriors long ago is called a Kris.




A magical Javanese knife takes the children to a township on the island of Java, where warriors reign supreme. A fight breaks out and a warrior is fallen, but the good spirits grant him a second chance. A Princess with her band of chambermaids befriends the cowering children. At the Princess's request the chambermaids perform their dance of the flowers. The children are entertained with a traditional puppet show, where the puppets come alive.




Scene Four - Borneo

"Dayak" is the local name for the native people, they are best known for the majestically beautiful women and their strong belief and use of ancient magic rituals.




In the sleepy fishing village, where the local ladies sell their fish, charming romance is in the air. For one special couple, they take to the air in a fanciful display of their youthful feelings of love. To take their bountiful catch from the ocean's grip, villager's plunge and splash the salty waters. A group of young maidens share the spectacle of a beautiful water dance, while Dayak boys working in the harbor show their macho skills of balance and dance.




Scene Five - Papua

The tribes of Papua are people bound by the "good earth" and the bounty of nature. They are extremely talented hunters and wood carvers.




From under the majestic limbs of the banyan tree, across the still waters of the grand lake floating on a simple raft, the villagers land upon the shore. There is a celebration at hand, preparation for the upcoming annual festival. They paint their faces in the ancient way, adorn their tribal dress and prepare for the festival of manhood. All the while the children witness the full spectacle of dance and traditional lore.




Saat pertunjukan sedang berlangsung, saya membayangkan jika ada orang Indonesia yang menonton show ini lalu harus membayar $80/Pax untuk harga publishnya. Hello, we are Indonesian. We can found this everywhere if we want to preserve it as long as we are still a citizen of Indonesia.

Saya hanyalah sebagian dari yang begitu mencintai dan menghargai pekerjaan saya sehingga mendapatkan benefit berlian ini. Hehehe. Menontonya FREE!
Dan saya juga begitu mencintai tanah air ini, bangga akan negeri ini dan sangat berharap bisa melakukan sesuatu yang berarti suatu saat kelak demi kemajuan bangsa ini. Terlalu tinggi cita-cita saya mungkin tapi mohon di AMIN kan.

Pernahkah kita masyarakat Indonesia menghayati semua itu dengan baik dan benar? Bahwa sesungguhnya kemerdekaan ialah BENAR hak segala Bangsa dan Bangsa kita telah mendapatkannya dengan susah payah melalui kegigihan dan keberanian para Pendahulu namun kini apakah penghargaan kita terhadap mereka sudah bisa menebus semua pengorbanan itu?

Dan oleh sebab itu manfaatkan semua keajaiban, mukjizat, dan Anugerah negeri ini dengan sebaik-baiknya sesuai kebutuhan dan keperluan serta menciptakan lingkungan yang aman dan kondusif dengan setia menjunjung pancasila yang sebenarnya jika dirangkum secara singkat hanya satu : GOTONG ROYONG. Masihkah kita peka tentang ini? Coba Reuni & Refleksi deh
