Set in 19th-century Kerala, Samaram, meaning struggle or battle, tells the haunting and inspiring tale of the “breast tax” imposed on lower-caste women, a symbol of deep-rooted inequality and injustice.
Through evocative storytelling, the production traces Nangeli’s unwavering courage as she rises against this brutal system, igniting what would become the Channar Revolt.
Samaram is a reflection on dignity, identity, and the enduring fight for equality. Nangeli’s story resonates across time, reminding us of the voices that refused to be silenced, and the power of individual courage to spark collective change.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of dance, music, and storytelling where tradition meets truth, and celebrates the spirit of human dignity.
