June 10, 2008 7:00 PM Toronto Illuminations: South Asian Expressions Berkeley Street Theatre, 26 Berkeley St. Cost : FREE! East meets west: A panel of internationally renowned artists shares its thoughts on one of the most fruitful relationships ever to have arisen between two cultures half a world apart. The influence of South Asian artistic expression on the culture of the West achieves a glorious theatrical apotheosis in British director Tim Supple’s multilingual, multidisciplinary re-imagining of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear Tim Supple in public dialogue with fellow director Charles Roy, who is currently preparing a production of the great Indian classic Shakuntala; A Throw of Dice composer Nitin Sawhney; and Indian-Canadian filmmaker Deepa Mehta, director of the acclaimed trilogy Fire, Earth and Water and Indo-jazz performer, composer, arranger and educator Suba Sankaran. Moderated by Luminato Curator of Literary Programming, Devyani Saltzman.
