Event
Sag Harbor, NY: Buddha - Triumph & Tragedy in the Life of the Great Sage
***FOR TONIGHT'S SHOW THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF TICKETS FOR PURCHASE AT THE DOOR***
PROGRAM: The life of the Buddha in his own words - the evolution of his thought, his triumphs, and the rarely portrayed tragedy at the end of his life.
The man we know as the Buddha lived in Northern India around 500BC and introduced the teaching known as Buddhism. Approximately 300 years after his death, an extensive oral history of the movement was written down, carried and copied throughout Asia, and this canon became the taproot of the entire Buddhist tradition. Framed in a most unusual and personal context, this original one-man play brings to the stage these authentic texts to enact the extraordinary life of the man, start to finish.
The Buddha considered his own life a model for all our spiritual struggles saying, "He who knows me, knows the Dharma." It's no dry tale -- The Buddha's life stands among the great archetypal adventure stories.
After premiering in Boston to sold out houses and rave reviews, the show is informally touring the US and Canada in its unplugged form (sans set and lighting). Dont miss the opportunity to see the show in this rare and raw form.
