Mohit Takalkar: Hunkaro

A second show for this performance piece, co-presented by Ishara Art Foundation, which invites the audience to practise the precious gift of attention through active, participatory listening.

It interweaves three stories of human trials and tribulations, tied together by the vital importance of hope and the impossibility of life without it. Using traditional singing and vocal techniques, the stories are narrated in different styles, languages and dialects by six professional actors. In the absence of musical instruments, the performers emphasise the aesthetic value of language and the importance of the spoken word.
