Meeting - An Exploration of Body and Space
“... it is not important whether it is called a theatre. Such a place is
necessary. If a theatre did not exist, another pretext would be found”
(Jerzy Grotowski)

 "Meeting" - An Exploration of Body and Space, at Akhra, , Madhaymgram,West
Bengal, from January17-19th, 10 AM to 4 PM.  (Space courtesy Alternative
Living Theatre)

Amidst the frenzy of development, amidst the incessant din of consumption,
we have lost harmony. Once we were grounded in the Earth, but now we are
rootless. The more we accumulate, the further we move from our Selves.
Meeting is a shared space to come together and celebrate, to move through
sound to silence, through movement to stillness, through others to the Self,
through space to the Spaceless. A place to breathe, to move, to be.

The session is open to all.

Conducted by  Arka Mukhopadhyay and Supriyo Samajdar.

Arka is a performer and performance researcher who works with breath, body
and space. He has performed and given workshops all over India and abroad.

If it be now, 'tis not to come;
if it be not to come, it will be now;
if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.
Since no man has aught of what he leaves, what is't to leave betimes?
Let be.
