Comparisons and Confluences - Seni Reog & Manora

Pauline Fan, Creative Director, PUSAKA

Comparisons and Confluences - Seni Reog & Manora

In conjunction with Malaysia Day, two majestic cultural traditions are being performed - Seni Reog of Johor and Manora of Kelantan - right here in Kuala Lumpur. Said to naturally complement each other, with many points of confluence and comparison, the performances are part of Malam PUSAKA di Ruang Kota, a series of cultural evenings in our capital city, featuring performances by masters of living traditions from throughout Malaysia, and organised by cultural organisation PUSAKA. We get a 101 on these cultural performances and traditions from Pauline Fan, the Creative Director of PUSAKA.
