About — Kathakali
Kathakali is a classical dance‑drama from Kerala, India, known for its elaborate makeup, vibrant costumes, and expressive gestures that convey mythological stories. It serves as a living repository of Hindu epics and regional folklore, performed traditionally by male artists. A notable example is the 1930s masterpiece “Nalacharitham” staged at the Kerala Kalamandalam.
