ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE


Fire, Water, and the Air We Breathe

Join us for an intriguing evening as we delve into the profound questions of human existentialism. Are we a species of true significance or merely a fleeting disturbance in the vastness of the environment? As the pioneers of fire and technology, we have achieved remarkable advancements, yet we are also the creators of destructive forces like the atomic bomb. What does this duality say about our nature and our destiny? Is our fate to remain Earth-bound or to venture beyond our planet? This compelling program will feature a brand-new composition by the talented Juhi Bansal, inviting us to explore these existential themes through music and dialogue. Don't miss this thought-provoking event!
