| Why is it so bloody damn bad to be angry?! Huh!! An angry person is often perceived as a bad person, a person without self control. As we try to stay far away from destruction; evil; violence; we often try to hide our own anger – pretend it doesn’t exist. In the Indian dramatic dance Kathakali we find the hero Bhima. As he gets mad he transforms (like the Incredible Hulk!!) into Raudra-Bhima with divine strength and courage. Inspired by Raudra-Bhima we’ve created a performance about anger. About letting forth the fury inside; about confronting it and finding the courage to do so. The energy tied to our anger doesn’t necessarily have to lead to violence, it can just as easily be used to change the world. An angry, explosive dance drama in one act. |
