Event Description:
About Ram is an experimental theatrical piece using excerpts from the Bhavbhuti’s “Ramayana” told through animation, digitally projected dance, masks and puppets. Experience this ancient Indian story about Prince Ram, an incarnation of the god Vishnu, who is exiled and must fight the demon king Ravana to rescue his wife Sita. Follows Ram’s life, his exile, Sita’s abduction by Ravana, his alliance with the monkey general Hanuman, and his eventual return to rule, an epic tale that serves a guide for Hindu principles like dharma, exploring themes of good versus evil, ideal relationships and duty.
