Guided tour of Kalamandalam
Kerala Kalamandalam launched a distinctive project – ‘A Day with the Masters’ in association with Tourism Department, Govt. of Kerala. This initiative offers a unique pilgrimage to the most sacred temple of arts, presenting a grand showcase of the institution’s rich artistic heritage.
Visitors can explore the Kuttampalam, a traditional temple theater designed for makeup, costuming, and performances. Inside, the granite pillars are adorned with carvings of 108 dance poses (karanas) from the Natyashastra, a 2nd-century treatise on Indian dramaturgy. The Kalaries, or studios, are where students receive rigorous training in various art forms.
