The Mahabharata, one of Hindu mythology's oldest and most significant epics, is a complex story that cannot easily be summarized. Yet, Canada's Why Not Theatre condensed it into a three-part, five-hour theatrical production, which included a shared meal. This adaptation, created by Ravi Jain and Miriam Fernandes, was a highlight of this year's Perth Festival and featured poetry from Carole Satyamurti's 'Mahabharata: A Modern Retelling'. Tune in to this podcast with creative associate Sharada K. Ewsar.
