Kismet with Kali
October 18th: Joe Goode Theatre, SF
Tickets
"Kismet with Kali" explores the fluidity of relationships and memory, tracing the quiet shift from expectation to acceptance. The work navigates through the complex bond between a mother & child, from the daughter’s perspective. With movement, poetry, theatre, and live music, it draws on personal stories. Goddess Kali, though surreal transcends to become a guiding presence.
