‘…you have to lose something to gain something…’
After the death of his father, Kiwi-born Shekar travels to his father’s village in the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka, to discover that a tsunami has swept away the village – all that remains are the stories and those left behind. As Shekar sifts through the ruins in search of answers, the buried truths of his past are revealed. A theatrical collage of movement, text, sound and excavation featuring a spellbinding solo performance accompanied by a trio of musicians.
The audience are requested to remove their shoes and leave them at entrance prior to entering the theatre.
Kia Mau Festival is proud to partner with Agaram Productions and SquareSums&Co.
