Description

In the dangerous and magical land of Sunderbans, living is about a fragile balance: between land and water, domestic and wild, human and human, calm and storm. As each stakes claim on the other and encroaches upon the other’s space, survival is possible only through stories and beliefs. Bonbibi is said to have come to the Land of the 18 Tides to protect all beings here. But, only if we agree to her terms. When she looks away, devastation follows. In this Object Theatre performance, traditional dolls of the region tell contemporary stories of their land.
