“Sumang” unfolds through four acts, each symbolising a different dimension of human connection. The first act, “Pratibimb”, delves into the deep bond shared between confidants, exploring themes of self-discovery and personal growth. The second act, “Alingan”, is inspired by the divine unity of Shiva and Shakti, celebrating the inner balance of consciousness and energy. The third act, “Sarvagya”, pays homage to the sacred relationship between teacher and disciple, focusing on spiritual growth and guidance. The final act, “Samagam”, celebrates the universal interconnectedness of all beings, embracing a collective harmony and shared energy.
Reflecting on the meaning behind “Sumang”, the production team emphasised its intention to inspire audiences to contemplate their own relationships and the shared bonds that connect all people. With intricate choreography, evocative music, and vivid visuals, the performance invites viewers on a journey of unity, support, and spiritual connection.
