The new entertainment in the form of a theatrical attraction at Taman Safari Bali named Varuna will soon be enjoyed by tourists who visit one of the conservation locations in Indonesia starting December 21. This song takes the title A Voyage of Flavors and Fantasy.

On a special occasion, the VOI Team was able to see firsthand the location of the Varuna theatrical which is still in the Taman Safari Bali area.

VP Media Event & Digital Team Taman Safari Indonesia, Alexander Zulkarnain tried to explain the details of this Varuna performance.

Alex said that Varuna's performance featured performances based on the folklore stories of the Indonesian people. Even so, some of the production teams behind Varuna's performance involved several names of foreigners such as Peter Wilson as Director and Author of this story and Benoit Jutras as composers of Varuna's theatrical songs.

"Taking folkfor stories from the people, but in terms of shows, the executions are very different, first of all, our technical director is Peter Wilson, who has experience in handling world-class shows," explained Alexander Zulkarnain at Taman Safari Bali, Gianyar, Tuesday, December 19.

"We also have our composer Benoit Jutras and our choreographer who happens to be taking it from outside. Now we happen to take it from outside why because it also includes artistic and other arrangers because we want Bali to have a world-class show," continued Alex.

Even so, Alex admits that he still involves local artists, especially in the cast director of their name I Made Sidia. Therefore, Alex said that all the casts that are members of the Varuna theatrical attraction are all Indonesian local residents.

"But we don't just prioritize artistic arrangers, directors, composers from foreigners but also our local cast director, from I Made Sidia, involving our local experts who help them, but for the cast everything is local, so the actual cast, the talent is all local," he concluded.
