At the End of Kaliyuga

At the End of Kaliyuga is a solo show about Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer), the Holy trinity of Hinduism, deciding the fate of the earth as we come to the end of the final cycle of the universe called Kaliyuga. Will the gods end the planet to begin a fresh start, or will humanity get a second chance to fix all the problems, or is there a third path that the gods will take for the sake of humanity? The themes of this story revolve around destruction versus rebirth and using mythology to connect the dots to our future. With an original blend of traditional Indian classical dance and clowning, this show will inspire young audiences’ imaginations as we collectively address some of the most significant questions of our era. 

The climax of the show incorporates audience interaction to build an ending, in collaboration with the audience, by teaching them Mudras (hand gestures) to embody the new inventions that we collectively bring to the new imaginary world. This allows multiple generations, including caregivers and children, to work together to build a new world in a show that blooms with generosity and brilliant imaginative creations.
