RITUAL OF STRENGTH
‘Ritual of Strength’ is a response to the current socio-political scenario in India. Performed in collaboration with Urban folk project, this production draws its creative aesthetics from rituals such as those of the Goddess Yellamma.
This production attempts to bring people together to celebrate the power of folk arts and strengthen new-found solidarity and ready our voices to replace forces of institutionalised hate with harmony. A series of live arts rituals were conceptualised and performed to compliment the stories and emotions that were evoked through these songs.
