Description

Explore the rich traditions of the Indian subcontinent with Indian Folk Theatres from the Theatres of the World series. This book provides a deep look at theatre anthropology through lived experience, combining detailed accounts of recent folk theatre performances with essential historical and cultural context. Readers gain access to a wide variety of regional forms, including Tamasha song and dance from Maharashtra, the lyrical dance theatre of Chhau in Bihar, and the satirical, ritualised epics of Theru Koothu from Tamil Nadu. By examining these contrasting styles, the text offers a practical perspective on how these traditions function in real-world settings. This work brings together the expertise of practitioners, anthropologists, and theatre scholars in India to provide a comprehensive study.
