Kathakali in Singapore

I couldn't believe it when my friend called me yesterday and asked if I want to Photograph Kathakali.
Kathakali ? Right here in Singapore? It is a rare event even in it's motherland Kerala, let alone Singapore.

But this one was for real. Looks like someone started resurrecting the old and forgotten to bring it to the homesick audiences across the globe. Thanks to the people who is behind all this. It is very refreshing to experience what we thought we lost somewhere in the past. Here is a proof that we didn't loose everything in our journey.
The show was performed by Mudra Cultural Society at Chong Pang Comunity Club in Singapore.















I went 3 hours early to catch them doing their make up. I really liked the whole thing, right from the make-up to the show. Click here for more photos from the show

In-case if you haven't seen one before, here is a video clip from the show, to give you an idea on how it really was.
