Traditional Performance Arts

Traditional performance arts are cultural practices that involve live presentation, often passed down through generations, reflecting a community’s history, beliefs, and creativity. Examples include music, dance, theater, puppetry, and storytelling that are rooted in specific regions or cultures. These arts often use distinctive costumes, music, and techniques to tell stories or convey rituals, preserving cultural identity and heritage. They thrive through community participation and are performed during festivals, ceremonies, or special occasions, serving as a living connection to a culture’s history and values.
