Wildcat Diwali Ramleela: The Story of Ram

The performance by Mandala Arts, a MacArthur Award-winning performance group, does a beautiful story-telling by combining the classical music and dance performance with an animation in the backdrop.

The Story of Ram, a true visual spectacle, represents Mandala’s interpretation of the ancient epic Ramayana, a classic tale that spans across cultures, producing a multidimensional performance work that combines contemporary culture and ancient history. The tale of Ram, his beloved wife Sita, and his brother Lakshman exiled in the forest—at odds with the brilliant king Ravana—weaves together the multiculturalism of Hindu traditions. The award-winning ensemble combines classical music and dance along with the very best artists who were involved in the project to illustrate the Ramayana.
