Cultural Show Offs!
Men painted as skeletons terrorise the crowd with shaig primitive bows. Mudmen covered in dried mud and wearing huge mud masks shake 10 centimetre long fingernails menacingly at their audience. This is obviously no ordinary show; in fact there is no show quite like traditional'sing sing dances from one of the hundreds of tribes of Papua New Guinea. Fifty years ago, a visitor would have a lot to fear from one of these tribal groups who often attacked and killed other rival groups. Nowadays, however, these groups have left their hostilities in the past and now celebrate their cultural differences through music, song and dance at a variety of shows held throughout Papua New Guinea. It used to be that these gatherings were an opportunity to celebrate marriages, trade useful items or reduce tensions between enemy tribes. Today, 'sing sing' celebrations such as the one held in Mount Hagen deep in the mountains of Papua New Guinea attract hundreds of tribal groups. Tribal groups from all over the country, many of them on foot, journey through the dense jungle of the mountains to the town of Mount Hagan to take part in the 'sing sing' show. The Mount Hagan show is the equivalent to a large dance competition with groups performing 'sing sing' dances for prize money, a chance to show off their ancestral heritage, but most of all for the glory that first prize at this show brings to the tribe . Although the show brings in local crowds of more than 50,000, very few tourists attend the event due to its remote location. Recently, theseе 'sing sing' shows are being promoted outside the country and many tourists are becoming aware of these unique cultural gatherings. In the past locals preferred that tourists did not attend, but slowly they are becoming more open to foreign audiences. Those who are privileged enough to be part of the audience at the Mount Hagen show are in for an incredible cultural journals. Over the course of two days more than 50 cultural groups take to a muddy field to perform their unique 'sing sing' dances. Tribesmen like the Huli Wigmen with colorful painted bodies and faces and wearing elaborate headdresses (wigs) made of exotic feathers parade out onto the field. To the sound of beating drums, the Huli Wigmen begin to sway in their long grass skirts as they perform their traditional bird dance in honor of the famous birds of naradice found in the hiahland of their territory. Other tribes such as the Asaro Mudmen, wearing huge mud masks and shaking fierce weapons, perform silent dances once used to terrify their enemies. Other dances act out tribal stories with the popular Simbu skeleton dancers performing an attack on a magical beast. As group after group perform, the field becomes alive with music, color and tantalizing dances. Even after the formal competition has ended, the dancing and singing continues for hours as the groups continue to celebrate with the sounds of chanting and drums. And although the field is an obvious mixture of different cultures with different beliefs, there is a sense of community amid this colorful gathering.
