ritual and custom, it embraces almost all castes and classes of the Hindu religion in this region. A
performance (mpg) of a particular deity continues for 12 to 24 hours with intervals. The costumes differ based on the
character (mpg) of the theyyam.

Elimination Dance A quicktime movie based on Michael
Ondaatje's
poem. "The rules of the dance are simple: if the caller announces a circumstance that has occurred in the lifetime of you or your partner, you must leave the dance floor at once."
