I was just remembering a conversation I once had with an Indian friend of mine who was telling me about how Indian actors and actresses necessarily were also singers and dancers. I was just thinking about that conversation because seeing you perform helped me to begin to understand that intriguing concept. Here you were praying, dancing, singing, reading poetry, creating laughter and tears, acting yet living, storytelling, playing tabla, and more, integrating the body within itself and without itself, encompassing the audience, meshing the fabric of tradition with the essence of the modern moment, all in the transcending name of Love. It’s very amazing what the human being can do, and there you were showing just all that. What a feat! Congratulations!
