Kim's any colour crazy challenge

Kim has suggested that we can even combine colours.  I have this photo where you can see a performance  This is known as ‘tiger dance’ normally performed during Dasara a celebration that lasts for 10 days 

Some of the actors in the photo are known to me – one is our gardener and a couple are neighbours.  They go from house to house performing this dance and we gift them with money.  It is not just the tiger dance but there are other performances too 

You can watch the dance here”

  1. Is this a record in the yard of your house? There are several similar holidays here in Spain. We have a similar holiday in my homeland. Little information about this tradition in Bulgaria. The mummers appeared in honor of the coming new year during Sirni Zagovezni, ie. at the beginning not of the calendar year, but of an agricultural year, related to the plowing of the fields. The custom of Kukerstvo symbolizes the departure of winter and the return of new life with the onset of warm days and is one of the oldest in our lands, dating back to 6000 years ago.

  2. Different places in the Philippines have different festivals that involve tribal dances. Some of the most popular and colorful are: Sinulog – of Cebu, Panagbenga (Flower Festival) of Baguio City, Maskara Festival of Bacolod City, Ati-atihan of Kalibo.

    Usually, the celebration runs about 3-7 days.
