科珀斯克里斯蒂节是巴拿马的一个宗教节日,庆祝基督的身体和鲜血。该节日将天主教传统与流行习俗和庆祝活动结合起来,以戏剧、音乐、滑稽舞蹈和五颜六色的服装和面具为特色。在节日的前一天,一场戏剧和音乐表演描绘了善良(大天使圣迈克尔)和邪恶(魔鬼和他的军团)在争夺人类灵魂的斗争中的斗争。然后,参与者们在一个队伍中跳舞,队伍中跟随着一位牧师,牧师手里拿着一个金属容器,主人就暴露在里面。(在天主教传统中,东道主是圣餐中的圣面包,代表基督身体的牺牲。)在一些社区,舞蹈是在鲜花制成的地毯上进行的。游行结束后,参与者自由跳舞,聚集在街头和家庭中,共享食物和饮料。与艺术节相关的知识和技能通过参与艺术节以及青年人参与舞蹈团体、面具制作团队和锯末地毯团队来传递。

The Corpus Christi festival is a religious festival in Panama that celebrates the body and blood of Christ. The festival combines Catholic tradition with popular practices and festivities and is characterized by theatre, music, burlesque dances and colourful costumes and masks. A day before the festival, a theatrical and musical performance depicts the battle between good (St. Michael the Archangel) and evil (the great devil and his legion) in the fight over the human soul. Participants then dance in a procession that follows a priest carrying the monstrance, a metal receptacle in which the Host is exposed. (In Catholic tradition, the Host is the consecrated bread of the Eucharist, representing the sacrifice of the Body of Christ.) In some communities, the dancing is performed on a carpet made of flowers. After the procession, participants dance freely and gather on the streets and in family homes, where food and drinks are shared. The knowledge and skills related to the festival are passed on through participation in the festival and the involvement of youth in dance groups, mask-making teams and sawdust carpet teams.
