Abstract :
There are three types of dancing traditions in Sri Lanka. These dancing traditions are known as Kandyan, Low Country and Sabaragamuwa. Among these dancing traditions, four styles of the Sabaragamuwa dancing tradition are used. These styles are being introduced by researchers in Ratnapura, Kalawana, Balangoda and Badulla. Although they were introduced as such, sources say that there was more advanced performing arts in Sabaragamuwa dance in the Uwa Province which belongs to the Badulla area. We have been getting information about Sabaragamuwa dance since the Dambadeniya period. However, sources say that the theater tradition in Uwa dates back to the Anuradhapura period. Based on these facts, this research paper examines the historicity of the Uwa theater traditions.
