The kecak is one of the best-known dramatic dance performance practices on Bali. Since its creation in the 1930s, the kecak has been primarily a tourist performance.Drawing on over twenty years of fieldwork and meticulous archival study, Kendra Stepputat provides here a comprehensive study of the history, form, and cultural significance of the kecak. Based on the ancient Indian Ramayana epic, it is performed by an ensemble of male and female solo dancers and accompanied by a hundred men who function as both musicians and living scenery.
The connection between cultural tourism on Bali and kecak performance practice is analyzed in detail, including the dependency between tourism professionals and artists and ways of promoting the kecak. The first part of the book focuses on the kecak in its present form, including musical, choreographic, and dramatic elements. Tourists' perspectives
