Kattaikkuttu theater is an integral part of the intangible Tamil cultural heritage. At the Sangam, we maintain and develop this traditional theater form adapting old plays and creating new, original work. We make Kattaikkuttu’s embodied know-how accessible to multiple audiences to ensure that generations to come will be able to enjoy and take part in its rich story repertoire, its vigor and aesthetic beauty.

Join us for a residential or non-residential workshop or long-term course. Visit or stay with us.

Because Kattaikkuttu matters.

Tailor-made immersive workshops in Kattaikkuttu for participants from different backgrounds and different ages from a beginners to a professional level. You acquire foundational or advanced skills in Kattaikkuttu singing, speaking, acting, movement, music making and make-up. And you learn how these skills are powerful tools to identify with a character and express yourself on the stage.

Enjoy a quiet retreat in an idyllic environment away from the noise and pollution of the city and the pressure of fast communication. Reconnect with nature and rural life.

Combine your visit or stay with an immersive experience of Kattaikkuttu by commissioning a performance. If you are a writer or performing artist, this might be the place to write your new book or to work on a new production using one of our training spaces.
