Unsuni (Unheard Voices)

Stepping away from Darpana’s strong tradition of Indian Classical and Contemporary dance, director Mallika Sarabhai decided to use the popular genre of Bollywood song and dance to thread together the 5 stories in her latest theatre production, Unsuni. Mallika felt that if there was one culture that connected the masses of India, including everyone from the high flying executive to the homeless beggar on the streets, it was that of the films. Choreographer Revanta Sarabhai used dancing from popular Bollywood songs as inspiration and choreographed the 5 songs that connect each story with the next in the play.
