Krishna Lila 

      Another form of presentation of a devotional play relating to the various deeds of Krishna. Once the artists in make-up appear on the central acting area in a ceremonial procession with the retinue of musicians and chorus, they stay on there and do not need a green room. There is a Sutradhara who recites Sanskrit text throughout and also explains it . The main character is Krishna and few Sakhas. A lot of singing, acting and dancing is involved in the play which is done in parts each night and the entire series covers 7 to 8 nights to complete. Properties are used to highlight certain sequences. Such as huge artificial serpent which peeps out and slowly rises high from a wooden box kept in the arena.
