SUMMARY:Silambam Phoenix presents Waves of Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Silambam Phoenix proudly presents WAVES OF RESISTANCE: An Investigation of the Nature of Revolution \nSunday May 31\, 2026 – 3pm (Poster Session)\, 3:30pm (Show) Monday June 1\, 2026 – 7pm (Poster Session)\, 7:30pm (Show) \nASU Kerr\, 6110 N Scottsdale Rd\, Scottsdale\, AZ 85253 \nTickets available at www. silambamphoenix.org \nThis dance theatre production is an investigation of what motivates the common person to join movements of resistance. We compare the similarities between the Boston Tea Party and the Salt March of the Indian independence movement. \n\n\n\n\n\nIn 1773\, a group of British colonists rebelled against their government and its unfair taxation policy by throwing hundreds of pounds of tea into Boston Harbour. \nIn 1930\, a group of people from various communities and backgrounds gathered to march to the sea in Gujarat\, India to make salt in defiance of the British tax of salt. \nBut how did they get here? What pushes the ordinary person to participate in revolution? \nWaves of Resistance is a comparative production which places these two points in history next to each other. Through music\, dance\, and theatrical storytelling\, the students of Silambam Phoenix present two tales of two disparate sets of people fighting for their right to self-governance. \n$20 Early Bird Tickets available until May 14\, 2026 \n$30 Tickets available until June 1\, 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\nASU Center for the Study of Race and Democracy is a presenting partner and are presenting a poster show on the background behind the two movements. We also have a moderated feedback session after each show. \nThis event is made possible due to the support from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Phoenix Arts Commission.
