Kathakali dancers in effect. This was an amazing experience. I traveled with my guru to this little town as he had a concert. After his concert, an all-night performance of this style of dance was enacted. It is a type of dance drama which originated in the state of Kerala and is intense on many fronts. The music, make-up, costumes, acting, endurance. A normal performance goes from late evening until morning. The stories are usually adaptations of the Indian classics Mahabharata and Ramayana.
