A Scenographic study in Draupadi's festival

Abstract:
The widespread presence of scenography is showing various changes in modern Western theatre societies.
Like other Indian ritual theatres, Drauadi's ritual theatre has indigenous visual elements. This paper
examines the scope of scenography analysis in open-area theatrical performances in Draupadi's festival of
Chittore District in Andra Pradesh. In the cross-disciplinary performance review, I present hidden elements
of scenography in the ritual performance of Draupadi's festival. This paper also shows the examination of space,
text, colour and composition, performers and spectators in the Draupadi festival within the context of
scenography.
