PANDVANI 108

Music, myth and fairytale for grown-ups from Pandvani108 ensemble.

When a stranger comes calling, all bets are off. Fate sharpens her knives, love slips through keyholes, and time watches it all unfold.

Inspired by central Indian epic-singing and global storytelling traditions, Pandvani108 return with a brand-new show. World-class storytellers Ben Haggarty and Steph Brittain bring wild myths and unruly fairytales to life, propelled by immersive live soundtracks from Sheema Mukherjee (Transglobal Underground, The Imagined Village), Raoul Neumann (Trans-Siberian March Band) and Rav Neiyyar (Bollywood Brass Band, Transglobal Underground).

From magic islands to battles with the taxman, expect high-energy gig theatre packed with strange seductions, sharp comedy and divine interventions. Celtic, Norse, Greek, Indian and Nart gods collide in chaotic encounters where anything can happen.

Find Ben, Steph and the ensemble at the Faber Alt x BBC Introducing Stage.
