Kashmiri drama refers to the rich and diverse tradition of theatrical performances from the Kashmir Valley, which reflect the region's cultural heritage, historical narratives, and social issues. These dramas often combine elements of music, dance, poetry, and dialogue, and are typically performed in the Kashmiri language, though sometimes in Urdu or Hindi as well.
