Mahabharata is a contemporary take on a Sanskrit epic that is more than four thousand years old and foundational to South Asian culture. This gripping story of a family feud is an exploration of profound philosophical and spiritual ideas. A visually stunning spectacle presented in two parts, Mahabharata takes audiences on a journey through the past in order to write a thrilling new future.
Exploring themes of storytelling, ecocide, and dharma (empathy), Part 1 begins Mahabharata's epic journey that asks, "How can one end the spiral of revenge when everyone believes they are right and their opponents wrong?"
A Why Not Theatre Production presented by Canadian Stage with Why Not Theatre
Created and Written by Ravi Jain and Miriam Fernandes, using poetry from Carole Satyamurti’s Mahabharata: A Modern Retelling
