Namaskaram,
I am posting for the first time in Tamizh Brahmin forum. Kindly seek your blessings, support, advice and guidance.
I endeavor to find a possible way to ensure the Tamizh Brahmin community and Children re-engage meaningfully with the songs, itihāsams and purānas, but not only simply through watching TV channels or youtube (passive engagement). Theatre was a very poprular medium to do this for a long time in our tradition, before TV: for .e.g Kathākālakshebam during Sri Rama Navami, Villu-p-pāttu, bhajans etc. However these days there is not much interest from the general public.
How can we rekindle the interest first in the parents so they send their children to such activities? If you are in a city in Tamizhnadu, will you send your child to a place like this: a drama/ theatre class two to three times a week and pay for it? Will you consider if the place is run in a clean way: no slapstick but strictly working with vedic and derived works?
I highly esteem your advices, guidance and contribution.
Thank you
