Kakkarissi natakom is a satirical dance-drama based on the
puranic legends of Lord Siva and his consort Parvati when
they assumed human forms as Kakkalan and Kakkathi - a nomadic
tribe of fortune tellers. The legend only serves as a skeletal
framework for the play, which often turns into a subtle
critique of contemporary society.The language is a blend
of Tamil and Malayalam. The chief characters are Kakkalan,
Kakkathi, Vetan, Velichappadu, Thampuraan and the ubiquitous
Jester. The Dholak, Ganchira,Chenda and the Harmoniumprovide
the background score.
