IIET to hold storytelling presentation on June 6
The Indian Institute of Educational Theatre (IIET) will be organisingThe Dust That Never Left Us, a storytelling presentation that brings together mythology, ecology, and immersive theatre. Conceived and performed by storyteller Janardan Ghosh, in collaboration with Oglam Bally, the Kathabhinaya presentation will be held at the IIET on Hardwicke School premises, JLB Road on June 6 at 6 p.m. The performance will be in English and is open to all. 'Blending expressive narration with gesture, movement, music, and audience interaction, The Dust That Never Left Us draws inspiration from ancient tales in the Bhagavata Purana —including King Prithu's dialogue with Mother Earth, Krishna's lifting of Govardhan mountain, and his dance over the serpent Kaliya in the Yamuna. These are reimagined to reflect pressing environmental concerns such as climate change, pollution, and the disconnection between humanity and nature,' a press release said here. Mr. Ghosh's Kathabhinaya storytelling is known for its emotional depth, rooted in Indian aesthetic traditions and 'rasa' theory. The performance integrates natural elements and somatic techniques, including guided visualisations and grounding practices inspired by Yoga Nidra, fostering not just ecological awareness but also personal healing and inner reflection, the release stated.
