Koothu (Tamil: கூத்து), means dance or performance in Tamil language, is a folk art originated from the early Tamil country. But more precisely Koothu refers Therukoothu (Tamil:தெருக்கூத்து) that is street dance or street play since it will be performed village squares. At early age the art of entertainment reached its peak in Tamil country. Mentioned in the Sangam literatures about the development of iyal (literature), isai (music) and natagam (drama). More than entertainment therukoothu educates the rural people about religion and their history. So it is a dying art form since those knowledge were taught using many other technologies in the modern world.
