Concert halls Kochi

Every day, this center offers Kathakali shows, which start at 5 pm with the actors' make-up session, then the one-hour show at 6 pm. The room is superb, all in woodwork, and there is even a small balcony. From 7 to 8 pm, Kalarippayattu demonstrations. From Sunday to Friday, concerts of Indian classical music take place at 8 pm, while Saturday evening is devoted to South Indian classical dance (Bharatanatyam in particular). Dance, singing and music classes are also offered.

This cultural center is an institution in Kochi. All the traditional Kerala arts (Kathakali, of course, but also many others) are studied and presented here. The visit of Prince Charles and Camilla on November 11, 2013 serves as a promotional tool displayed everywhere. An annex is located in Fort Kochi, on KB Jacob Road, close to Hotel 18. Every day the annex offers Kathakali shows, aimed more at tourists than those in Ernakulam, which begin at 4:30 pm with the actors' make-up session.

Makeup symbolizes the transition from mortal to immortal. The center also organizes, from 6 p. m. to 7:30 p. m., a show that mixes kathakali, martial arts and various dances of South India. To attend pure demonstrations of Kalarippayattu (martial art of Kerala), you must show up at 8 a. m. or 4 p. m.

It is one of the oldest theaters in Kochi. Performances take place every night from 6 p. m. to 8 p. m., makeup session included. The emphasis is on explanations: The programmers expose the story of the Kathakali, its religious significance, etc., and after the representation answer questions from spectators.

Program for manoharan and English films.
