Event Description

This Bharatnatyam performance follows a single night in the love of Radha and Krishna. As dusk gathers, Radha, adorned with stars, goes to meet her beloved. She becomes night itself: seductress, confidante, and witness.

The piece opens in starlight and fragrance, with the senses awakened and the god of love invited. In the embrace, Radha’s adornments dissolve, and she asks Krishna to dress her once more. When sleep brings dreams of war and death, and the stillness of the night is broken by the approach of change. A keeper of secrets and a harbinger of loss, the night is both lover and landscape in this performance.
