- Kerala Kathakali Centre - You will be picked up from your hotel in Kochi around 4:30 PM and driven in an air conditioned vehicle to the Theater for a traditional ‘Kathakali’ Dance Show this evening (Between 05-06 :30 PM).
The story in ‘Kathakali’ is communicated to the audience through amazing footwork and impressive gestures of face and hands complimented with music and vocal performance. The dancers wear intricate and vivid makeup, unique face masks and costumes that reflect the age-old martial arts and athletic conventions prevalent in Kerala and surrounding regions. Traditionally performed by male dancers, the art developed in courts and theatres of Hindu regions contrary to other Indian classical dances which predominantly developed in Hindu temples and monastic schools. Although not clearly traceable, this classical dance form likely goes back to the 1st millennium CE, possibly even earlier.
After the show, enjoy dinner at a local restaurant. Later, you will be driven back to your hotel in Kochi.
