Kattaikkuttu is a rural theatre form practiced in the State of Tamil Nadu in South India. The performers – by tradition only men - sing, act and dance and the musicians accompany them on the harmonium, the mridangam and the mukavinai. The terms Terukkuttu and Kattaikkuttu are often used interchangeably. However, historically the two terms appear to have distinguished, at least in certain villages, between two different kinds of performance: while Terukkuttu referred to mobile performances by two actors participating in a procession for the village deity Mariamman, Kattaikkuttu denotes overnight, narrative performances at a fixed performance space acted by an ensemble of about fifteen actors and musicians.

  • Kattaikkuttu (Tamil), kaṭṭaikūttu, auch Terukkuttu, englische Umschrift Therukoothu, ist ein religiöses Straßentheater im südindischen Bundesstaat Tamil Nadu, das in tamilischer Sprache aufgeführt wird und Tanz, Drama, Gesang und Instrumentalmusik beinhaltet. Die Themen stammen meist aus dem altindischen Epos Mahabharata und konzentrieren sich auf die Figur der Prinzessin Draupadi. Bei mehrtägigen Tempelfesten für die als Göttin verehrte Draupadi sind Aufführungen von Kattaikkuttu ein Teil des Programms. Dabei zeigen reich kostümierte und geschminkte Darsteller neun bis zehn Stücke an ebenso vielen aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen und Nächten. (de)
