Witness a heartfelt dance drama conceived by Ulka Mayur and performed by a talented ensemble. This work traces the emotional journey of motherhood across generations, blending Kathak and contemporary movement to illuminate the everyday moments, imagination, and enduring bonds between mothers and daughters.
A moving tribute to the profound journey of motherhood, this dance drama, conceived and directed by award-winning theatre artist Ulka Mayur, explores the many dimensions of being a mother: loving, nurturing, playful, strict, selfless, and deeply transformative. Drawing from both Kathak and contemporary movement vocabularies, the piece follows the story of a woman who, with the birth of her daughter, is herself reborn as a mother.
Audiences accompany her through each evolving phase, witnessing everyday moments of play, storytelling, caregiving, teaching, and emotional anchoring that together shape the fabric of childhood and identity. The production’s innovative stagecraft brings the mother’s imagination to life, as stories are vividly realised through expressive dance, and scenes of tenderness and playfulness unfold in richly layered visual tableaux. As the daughter grows and ultimately steps into motherhood herself, the narrative completes a generational circle, highlighting the quiet acts of love and wisdom passed down over time. Seamlessly blending movement, drama, and folklore, ‘M Se Maa' is designed to resonate deeply with audiences, inviting reflection on personal bonds and shared experiences, and standing as both a universal and intimate celebration of mothers everywhere.
