A traditional religious play based on the concept of the ten rebirths of Lord Vishnu in Hindu mythology, these folk plays are generally performed by the local artists at religious fairs held to propitiate various Gods and Goddesses in mythology, across remote villages in the South Konkan. There are no female artists as the men themselves perform the role of feminine characters. Dashavatar is a tradition that has flourished for about 300 years. These plays do not have any written scripts.
