Barong and the monkeys suicide

A performance seen in the GWK cultural Center.
The Barong dance and its story.
In the Barong dance the lion (the good spirits) fights against his opposite called Rangda. Rangda represents evil.
The dance always starts with 2 playful monkeys teasing Barong. Then the evil Rangda appears and tries to use black magic on the male dancers. She orders them to commit suicide. However, Barong uses protective magic on the men so that they become invulnerable. The dance ends in a final battle between Baron and Rangda. Barong wins the battle; the evil is defeated.
