Kacak dance performance, which included the Balinese fire dance. This show was 90 minutes and was full of elaborate costumes and amazing dance. The show started when about 50 men dressed in traditional Hindu sarongs appeared all singing a song which sounds like the name, Kacak. The finally was a man, who was dressed as a horse, danced around a fire of coconut shells. He proceeded to kick the flames, scattering these shells into the audience. I have never seen anything like this, since it was night the red ash was an amazing sight. The man did not have shoes on and he was walking in the fire and kicking it everywhere. At the end of the performance his feet were solid black from the ash. Simply amazing!
