Cultural Day: Skits, Music and Dance

(Part Four)

The evening's fun was filled with lots and lots (I mean LOTS) of entertainment of a wide variety!

All of the skits were performed in Hindi and/or Mahrati (the local language here), so I needed a lot of help from a translator, who filled me in on the basics of what I was watching. It didn't really matter to me, though, because so much of the night's fun for me was also watching the crowd's reactions.

Just to be able to be with such a group of people all having a great time - enjoying the night laughing, hooting (which is not like heckling in the US ... it's more a show of support) and applauding ... THAT was as much fun for me as watching all the acts on stage.
