Description: At a time when the classical theatre of Kutiyattam was facing serious decline, the late D. Appukuttan Nair made strenous efforts to start a new beam for Kutiyattam in 'Margi', a school for classical arts in Trivandrum. The anempt was to set up a repertory to sustain the brief surviving tradition in this art form. Margi had the benefit of initial assistance from no less a master than Ammannur Madhava Chakyar as the first visiting professor or Acharya and Arnmannur Kochukuttan Chakyar as the resident Guru. It pursued the traditional teaching system under Gurukula Sampradayam. Although the school started in right earnest, public performance were rare due to severe shortage of funds.
