Art can never suddenly emerge anew. It is influenced by different arts over a while and takes on the appearance of another art based on needs. Therefore, Evolution is the development of another art under the influence of other arts. Thus, the literary art of Kuravanchi has evolved into the art of drama coupling with the arts of music and dance. The purpose of this article is to analyze the organization of the Kuravanchi dance dramas and to observe whether the traces of the above arts can be found in them.
