Bhakti and the Blues
Indian storytelling meets transatlantic blues...
Enchanting storyteller Vayu Naidu and renowned Jazz/Blues singer Cleveland Watkiss take the audience to unexpected places, on an epic voyage to find love in all its forms, including Bhakti - the longing to belong eternally.
In a journey which combines storytelling, music improvisation and visual display, the audience is taken through a cycle describing the manifestation of spiritual love in the world, its retreat into hiding and the processes which form part of a cycle of reconnection.
Bhakti and the Blues was performed at Kings Place as part of the DSC South Asian Literature Festival.
