"The Essence of all Art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure."

Day 60
          25 Feb 2022

Theater and drama is an art form that has been going on for centuries all around the world.

Today has been a happiness day for me and my first visit with my friends.After the prayer we all gathered together in the portico. The Principal Sir gave us the necessary instructions and wished us a good day.We left for Vattiyoorkavu Gurugopinath Dance Museum in two buses at 10 am.
Joju Sir was with us. We got there at 11am. As soon as we got there, we were fascinated by each of his passages. Ancy teacher and Maya teacher were with us .We turned into two groups and started to visit each part and listen to the class. 


This institute provide training to different art forms including kerala Nadanam, light music etc. Also here provide training for musical instruments such as tabla , veena etc. Major contribution of Guru Gopinath was the creation of modern dance style kerala Nadanam from kathakali for better understanding to the ordinary people. we visited the dance museum. It provided a great experience to us. We can understood the different dance forms in an well explained manner. 


Gurugopinath pillai sir 
  He is considered one of the epic personalities of Indian dancing in the 20th century like Uday Shankar. He carved out a contemporary style of dancing, classical in form but popular in appeal, through which the fame of Kathakali spread far and wide in the beginning of the 1930s. He showed how Indian dancing could handle themes other an than those from Hindu mythology. Indian classical dance is the language of humanity, the global language. He popularised it by choreographing
Evolution of Kerala nadanam is from kathakali.


             Then we have a class by Dr. Sajeev sir about the art form kerala Nadanam and also give a detailed description about Navarasas. Then we have a photo session of each optionals . They also provided us an opportunity to see a documentary on theyyam. That provide us a new experience. Really it was a beautyful and cheerfull day to all of us.
