THONDAN


An archaic ritual practice spawns an unimaginable spiral of revenge, carnage and tragedy! This gripping nail-biter of a story from Shakespeare's earliest tragedy Titus Andronicus, takes a new meaning and form in an exciting adaptation by Miror Theatre - the first time the play has been translated into literary Tamil.

Plot aside, ‘Thondan’, takes its form from physical theatre and traditional Indian performing art forms – including the traditional Kerala martial art form, Kalari Payet, Therukoothu (a form of street theatre) and Koodiyaatam. A potent mixture of various Indian art forms with a contemporary twist, Thondan promises to be a visual treat as well as a complete theatrical experience.
Featuring Vasantham Central award-winning artistes including Puravalan, G Selvanathan, Vicknesvari Vadivalagan, Sounderarajan, Kalpana, Sivakumar Palakrishnan, Vickneswaran and many others. Titus Andronicus was translated by Elavazhagan Murugan
