Introducing our newest shadow play, “Devour the Moon” 🌕🌗🌘 We’ve developed a new show in collaboration with Gamelan Dharma Swara, one of the leading Balinese gamelan and dance groups in the United States! “Devour the Moon” is an adaptation of the Hindu myth of Kala Rau—a fable explaining the lunar eclipse—set to “Synesthesia,” a contemporary gamelan piece composed by Jerome Fund Award-winning composer Joel Mellin. This epic tale unites the gods and demons in a cosmic tug-of-war to churn the nectar of immortality from the depths of the ocean. Told through overhead projector shadow puppetry, shadow mask, and lantern, this adventure explores universal oneness, transformation, and the interdependence of darkness and light. We’ll be premiering our 10-minute play on Friday, 10/24 and Saturday, 10/25 at 7pm (doors at 6pm) at “Fall Frequencies” at @sctrpc in Ridgewood, Queens, alongside new music and choreography from GDS! There will also be Indonesian street food from @masbudistreetfood and drinks from @bundasjamu .
