A pioneering narration of the fearsome Gorgon Medusa and the self-realization of Goddess Athena
Each creation of Mohini is a years-long effort and energy. So was the story of Nirvana. Mohini took a long journey of three years for the research and preparation, which resulted in the culmination of Nirvana on April 30, 2022. Through Nirvana, Mohini took a shift in its narration, bringing the untold stories of the formidable snake-haired Gorgon, Medusa.
Nirvana brought the tale of Goddess Athena and Medusa to the stage and shed a unique light through a fresh and thought-provoking perspective on the eternal Goddess Athena and her path to self-realization. At its core, Nirvana reaffirmed the universal truth of true beauty being the reflection of inner purity. Premiering at the Meydenbauer Theater in Bellevue, USA, the production played to two full-house shows, earning standing ovations and glowing reviews. Building on this success, Nirvana went on to captivate audiences at the 52nd Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle and the Seattle Theater Group’s “Dance This” event, establishing itself as a remarkable exploration of myth and self-discovery
