The Balinese Barong and the Kris dance is just one among the most emblematic dance dramas on the island. It is also another narrative dance that narrates a fight between the good and the bad. This dance is a traditional illustration of the Balinese way of representing mythology, which makes myth and history merge into one reality.
The "Barong" is a creature and a lion-like character in the Balinese mythological beliefs. He is surely the king of spirits, superior to the ranks of good, and the adversary of the "Rangda", the ruler of demons and the mother of most of the guardians of the spirit.
The struggles between Rangda and Barong are demonstrated in the general performance of the Barong dance to symbolize the endless battle between the bad and the good or the right and wrong.
