THEYYAM TRAIL
Immerse in one of the oldest spiritual and ritualistic art forms in India - Theyyam- on this special itinerary which takes you to a temple courtyard or sacred g...
rove (kaavu) where a chosen performer (theyyam) transcends the human form to embody the temple deity in an intense performance of dance, fire and devotion. Witness the meticulous application of make-up, dressing, elaborate headgear and a ceremonial lighting of fire torches which lead into the main dance performance, as the Thottam Pattu - a rhythmic chant narrating myths and legends - echoes with the clash of cymbals and drum beats. By the time the dance reaches its peak, the performer becomes the living embodiment of the temple’s deity, forging a powerful connection between the divine and the devout.
