Event Description

Glitch in the Myth is a multi disciplinary departure from the overtold Ramayana. The play takes you on a journey from Mithila to Lanka, with Sita, her Sakhi, and a slew of other characters both strange and familiar; a journey teeming with sacred sisterhoods, unlikely alliances, and a twist in the tale that sparks revolution. Glitch in the Myth is performed by two artists: a storyteller and a musician. The show blends Bharatanatyam movements and vocabulary and Indian classical music, offering the audience a multi dimensional performance.
