Hi,
 
Is there anyone who could explain the origin of "Mardi Gras" in New
Orleans? I'm grateful if you let me know any reference regards that kind
of culture. As an Asian student, I'm not familiar with the festival.
Does it happen to have anything to do with medieval pageants?
        In these days, I'm reading the Chester mystery cycle plays.
Is there any connection between medieval drama and Mardi Gras?
 
Forgive me for my stupid question.
taiwon,
U of F
