PERFORMANCE "BEYOND FIVE — THE ALCHEMY OF AWARENESS"

SYNOPSIS: Everyone of us has a story, a journey travelled. Ours is from the the mysterious unknown to the enchanting known. Born of different cultures, we meet one day to become sisters sharing our present events and our past life stories. Through them we discover a magical resemblance in how our incessant search and listening to the voice of the Universe is rewarded by the gift of The Five Elements. They become a Spiritual Guide for each step of our personal transformation to attain the ultimate alchemy of awareness and rejoice the abundance beyond five. If you look further beyond, how many of your own stories might you find?…

ARTISTS: Revati Salunkhe (Contemporary Indian Dance ) & Nigma (Middle Eastern Dance & Tribal Fusion)
