Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: The Buddhist theatrical mystery tsam is an artistic structure in which all the elements are functionally interconnected with each other. According to its features tsam shows commonality with the universal specifics of the folk thea-ter, where the audience often fulfills the function of an artist and a director, and the stage space is created and expanded by involving the spectator into the action. The costume, mask and dance-pantomime are functionally connect-ed with the ritual in the performance, and the dialogue − with representations of comic character.
