This tutorial will show you how to make Yakshagana headgear (kirita) out of paper clay & cardboard. Yakshagana (Kannada : "ಯಕ್ಷಗಾನ", Tulu : "ಆಟ", Malayalam: "യക്ഷഗാനം") is a traditional theatre form, developed in Dakshina Kannada and Uttara Kannada districts, in the state of Karnataka (India) and in Kasaragod district in Kerala that combines dance, music, dialogue, costume, make-up, and stage techniques with a unique style and form. It is believed to have evolved from pre-classical music and theater during the period of the Bhakti movement. It is sometimes simply called "the play" (ಆಟ) in Tulu Language. Yakshagana is strongly influenced by the Vaishnava Bhakti movement. Yakshagana is traditionally presented from dusk to dawn. Its stories are drawn from Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavata and other epics from both Hindu and Jain and other ancient Indic traditions. Many years ago, Yakshagana used to be performed in paddy fields or in temple premises. Once the day’s work was complete, people carrying mats would come from far away and spend the night watching the performance. It was a kind of an unwinding after a long day’s work,for the performers as well as the audience. how to make paper clay- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDcwrVwvxcs&t=4s Check our channel for more newspaper & cardboard crafts.
