Details

In the journey of the heart, as it opens, the mind, too, may follow. The risks, joys and possibilities of leaving the known. Leaving home. The heart that may break. Seeing the beloved in everything. Mejnun uses humour, audience participation, ritual and poetry to celebrate the power of universal love to overcome cultural and religious divisions. The play is grounded in Uzbek and Sufi traditions, drawing from Goethe's West-East Divan (1819), the 15th century Turkic-Uzbek mystic Alisher Navai's Leyli and Mejnun and the 12th century Persian Sufi poet Attar of Nishapur's Sheikh Sanan.
