Ramayana
Event location: Lyric Theatre Hammersmith. Ongoing event.
Written and directed by David Farr
With music by Shri
A retelling of the great Indian epic
Journey to India as the Lyric brings one of the greatest love stories of all time to the stage, in this highly physical and visually stunning retelling of the great Indian epic, Ramayana.
Exiled from the serene palaces of their homeland and plunged into the deep forests of Southern India, the passionate love of Rama and Sita is put to the test - as demons, goddesses and an army of monkeys do battle for their hearts.
Set to a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack by leading light of the Asian music scene Shri (of Badmarsh & Shri), David Farr’s new version combines thrilling storytelling and theatrical exuberance to take you on a heady journey from the darkness of the jungle to the lights of Diwali.
