"Vana
Mahotsavam" refers to an event whereby saplings
of trees are planted and the younger generation gets
to learn about the importance of preserving nature.
Similarly, this dance drama is a celebration of beauty
of nature as well as a reminder of the need for us to
environmentally friendly, to respect life and to
maintain ecological balance in the world.
The dance drama
begins with a portrayal of the forest in all its
glory. As the Sun shines its golden rays on earth,
animals come out of their slumber. Peacocks spread
their feathers and dance in ecstasy, while the deer
quench their thirst by the gurgling stream. Mother
elephant teaches its calf the etiquette of finding
food and the preciousness of water. Everything in the
jungle seems to be in harmony, until men come with
their axes...
