The traditional period from 1000 C.E. to 1700 C.E. introduced regional languages, improvisation, and a pastoral sensibility to the stage. The plays were presented verbally rather than using written scripts.
“Theatre forms a very important part of India’s history and has donned various hats such as nukkad nataks (street plays) for awareness programmes, protests, radio plays for villages, and is a vessel for the cultural depiction of Indian Heritage.

Decline of Theatre In India
Traditional Theatre Art Forms in Kerala
Modern Indian theatre developed during the period of colonial rule under the British Empire, from the mid-19th century until the mid-20th. The acting became naturalistic and melodramatic in contrast to the stylized techniques of traditional Indian theatre.
“The theatre industry is shrinking. Independent theatre groups have mushroomed across India over the past few years, but the issue is more about sustainability rather than quantity,” says Jain, theatre artist based in Delhi tells Media India Group.
Towards the end of the 1960s, there was the emergence of a new style of theatre called Thanathu Nataka Vedi (Indigenous Theatre). The 1970s saw the rise of experimental theatre. The main aim of this movement was to provide theoretical and practical guidance to theatre artistes to give them a direction for development. It was focused on rejecting the influences of western theatre and incorporating more of the folk theatre traditions of Kerala.
It combines speaking, acting, and singing to present a story. Costumes, make-up, or settings are not used. The main artist, the Kaadhikan, tells the story, acts and sings with two or three accompanying instrumentalists. A performance typically lasts one-and-a-half to two hours.

Drama Therapy is an active, experiential approach to facilitating change. Through drama, the depth and breadth of inner experience can be actively explored and interpersonal relationship skills can be enhanced. A drama therapist first assesses a client's needs and then considers approaches that might best meet those needs. Drama therapy can take many forms depending on individual and group needs, skill and ability levels, interests, and therapeutic goals.

The room below the stage area which is used for scenic effects. The trap room can be opened to the stage house by removable traps in the stage floor.

End stage theatres are those that have an audience on only one side. Such stages are most often rectangular or square, but they can be triangular or take a variety of irregular shapes.
A room, usually at the rear of the auditorium, from which lighting, sound, and other control equipment is operated during the performance
The thrust stage at the University of Kent.
The space in a theatre or similar venue that functions as a waiting room and lounge for performers before, during, and after a performance or show when they are not engaged on stage.
Proscenium stages have an architectural frame, known as the proscenium arch, although not always arched in shape. Their stages are deep and sometimes raked, meaning the stage is gently sloped rising away from the audience.

It forms in tropical and subtropical regions where the climate is humid. When manured and irrigated, some laterites are suitable for growing plantation crops like tea, coffee, rubber, cinchona, coconut, arecanut, etc. Laterite soil are commonly used as road pavement materials to provide a better sub base, gravel for roads and base materials.

Connected Spaces
Spaces connect without interleaving physically, their flanking surfaces presenting an image of the adjoining space.
When the geometric order and configurational structure diverge to enhance variations in visual experience and to encourage interpretation of the conceptual schemes of displays inside, buildings tend to stimulate spatial exploration and observer participation.
The main line of movement lacks variation and provides comparable information about form and space on either side of the line, thus suggesting a strong sense of symmetry.
