Description:

Discover a rich cultural tradition spanning centuries and enjoy a performance of a traditional Kathakali show at the Kochi Cultural Center. Go into the dressing rooms to see the meticulous preparation and take a seat in the audience to witness the sights and sounds of the impressive display.

Begin your evening of rich Keralan tradition with a private vehicle ride to the highly regarded Kochi Cultural Center, where local people work tirelessly to propagate the ethnic performing arts of Kerala.

Take a look backstage, where you can meet some of the artists as they apply the bright makeup and ornate costumes that typify the Kathakali form of dance.

Be seated in the auditorium and observe the dancers perform a prayer as a prelude to the main event. A short introduction and demonstration in English provides key context and enables you to get the most from the show.

As the drama unfolds, marvel at the vibrant colors and opulent costumes as the hypnotic drumbeats and melodic singing accompany the mesmeric dance movements across the stage.
