A dialogue between Man and the Earth

It was a visual treat for the art aficionados in the capital city on Friday evening as they got to witness Bhu, a dance and theatre show at Bharath Bhavan. The show was a creative collaboration by Kalarigram, the martial arts school in Tamil Nadu and Water Carriers, a French theatre company. The one-hour-long performance organised by Alliance Francaise de Trivandrum communicated the journey of a man, a warrior who discovers his connection with Mother Earth.Using the possibilities of one of the oldest martial arts forms of the world, Kalaripayattu, the artistes have successfully amalgamated modern theatrical acts to formulate a play which conveyed that human body is fully connected with Mother Nature.
