  The $T\bar{T}$ deformation can be formulated as a dynamical change of
coordinates. We establish and generalize this relation to curved spaces by
coupling the undeformed theory to 2d gravity. For curved space the dynamical
change of coordinates is supplemented by a dynamical Weyl transformation. We
also sharpen the holographic correspondence to cutoff AdS$_3$ in multiple ways.
First, we show that the action of the annular region between the cutoff surface
and the boundary of AdS$_3$ is given precisely by the $T\bar{T}$ operator
integrated over either the cutoff surface or the asymptotic boundary. Then we
derive dynamical coordinate and Weyl transformations directly from the bulk.
Finally, we reproduce the flow equation for the deformed stress tensor from the
cutoff geometry.
