Event Description
SHE is a Bharata Natyam production takes the audience on the mythological journey of the Devi as well as personalised narratives, weaving through classical sagas of the goddess and ending with the communal ordeals of women.
It utilises emotion as its through-line and creates a parallel and continuity between the immortal goddess in all her forms and the mortal woman.
According to the Rig Veda, the feminine is the essence of the universe, the one who creates all matter and consciousness, the eternal and infinite, the metaphysical and empirical reality, the soul of everything.
SHE is a tribute not only to the divine feminine but also to the devadasis, the original storytellers of Bharata Natyam who were stripped of their stories in the early part of the 20th century.
Through their original interpretations of these compositions, the dancers bring the past into the present to imagine different futures. SHE passes on the tradition of emotional exploration from teacher to student and dancer to audience.
