Untitled: A Solo Performance

Tuesday, March 23, 7 PM
National Museum of Natural History, Baird Auditorium

Indian artist Lushin Dubey presents a theatrical piece that weaves together two works: Euripedes's Medea and a Rajasthani folk tale with a similar, though lighter, revenge plot. Dubey plays fourteen different characters in these parallel stories. At last summer's Edinburgh Festival, Untitled was hailed as "fascinating in its cultural imaginings and universal in its implications:" Dubey and director Arvind Gaur participate in a discussion after the performance.
