Inspired by contemporary, classical Indian postmodern aesthetics, ‘The Durga Chronicles’ uses music, dance and stunning visuals, accompanied by a Carnatic choir of 12 women to create an immersive storytelling experience that is both harrowing and moving.
This incredible production draws on the stories of women who have been harmed in different parts of the world, and harnesses the force of Durga, the Hindu Goddess of protection, to provoke empowered resistance against gendered violence.
The Durga Chronicles by Priya Srinivasan is a collaboration with Uthra Vijay, Philipa Rothfield and supported by Govin Ruben, Hari Sivanesan, Marcus Salvagno, Priyadarsini Govind, Lalita Ramona Yagnik and the Keerthana Women’s Choir. With special guests Menaka Thomas and Susmitha Ravi.
Indian Link empowers and elevates the South Asian community in Australia, by telling their stories and unpacking their experiences in a nuanced and unbiased manner.
