08 NOVEMBER, 2020: Did you know that India and Japan share many cultural similarities such as festivals marking the changing seasons, rituals, and art inspired by nature, and the adherence to the lunar calendar? Kabuki, a Japanese traditional popular drama, and Kathakali, an ancient theatre form of South-East India, are similar in so many ways, whether it’s the stylised gestures, symbolic yet minimal dance moves and a lot of eye and facial expressions, colourful and dazzling costumes, elegantly designed wigs and elaborate make-up of male artistes, equal parts dialogue delivery and dance. These are but a few examples. Are you interested to know more about such shared nuances?
The India Japan Study Centre (IJSC) is hosting its next talk in the seminar series ‘Tatsujin – Speak’ on 13th November 2020 at 11.00 AM. The webinar titled, ‘Identifying Our Shared Identity!
