What is Theyyam about?

Theyyam is a sacred folk ritual from northern Kerala that blends theatre, dance, and worship, where performers embody the gods they represent. It has deep roots in tribal and animistic beliefs, evolving over time to incorporate Hindu mythology, and serves as a living archive of community history and identity. The ritual challenges social hierarchies, particularly the caste system, while highlighting the roles of both male and female participants in preserving this cultural tradition.
