This is probably one of the worst "cultural shows" I have ever seen. Held in what I think may have been a local community hall just on the outskirts of Kandy. The drummers were terrible and seemed totally disinterested in what they were doing. The drumming itself is completely tuneless and just noise. The dancers were a little better but... More

I always like such shows giving full fun of local & native dances & culture.

Please notice that there is a small intermission between the... More
