Randai is a peasant-style dance form, an integral part of political, religious and secular ceremonies, that came out of the art of self-defence. The bodies of the performers begin to speak as one and the differences between singer, dancer and performer become blurred. Ery Mefri and his Nan Jombang Dance Company – visiting Europe for the very first time – focus on the contradiction between ritual founded on the community, and a growing individualisation. Being aware of tradition always meant having a sense of the contemporary.
