Shadow puppetry is a precursor to animation, cinema, photography, theatre and various other arts. One of the primary performance spaces in temples are-corridors, built structures and even separate structures facing the temple, such as Koothumadams (permanent shadow theatre found outside the periphery of Bhadrakali Temples) which are found in various bhadrakali temples of Palakkad, Malappuram and Thrissur districts of Kerala these are fixed structures specifically built for tholpavakoothu (the play of leather shadow puppet of Kerala)the shadow puppet performance is preceded by a series of rituals in the main temple to invoke the goddess bhadrakali, so that she can witness the story of Rama.
