Kathakali Blog Post #2

Watching  Kathakali was very interesting and something that I have never seen before. To practice this form of theatre must take years to master. I cannot even imagine the effort someone has to put in order to be an expert on detailed facial expressions and intricate body movements. The costumes and makeup in both videos are also gorgeous! I love how elaborate the makeup and costumes are. Detail seems to matter for this form of theatre in terms of decorative costume, heavy colorful makeup, and even the exaggerated performing.
