- sword dance : Performances of Korcula's famous folk
dance, the Moreška, take place outside the main gate to the
old town in summer every Thursday evening (tickets 50kn).
This frantic, sword-based dance is the story of a conflict
between the Christians (in red) and the Moors (in black):
the heroine, Bula, is kidnapped by the evil foreign king and
his army, and her betrothed tries to win her back in a ritualized
sword fight which takes place within a shifting circle of
dancers.
