Mahabharata Play for Next Year
By Bhakta Wallace
Posted November 27, 2002

Hare Krsna!

We are proud to announce that Mahabharata is being produced in conjunction with the Gorilla Theater Company of Kansas City, Missouri, in the fall of 2003. This is the first time to our knowledge that a supposedly non-devotional theater company is becoming involved with a devotional play.

Originally adapted and performed in 1987 by Sankirtana das (Andy Fraenkel) and the late Lokamangala das, the play is being revived by Bhakta Wallace Dorian with a bold new vision. The play is unique in that it originally had two actors playing eight roles.

Our future goal is to take it off-Broadway or even on Broadway in New York City. If there are any devotee entrepreneurs out there who would be interested in this venture, you are welcome to inquire. For more information please visit our website at:
