Storytelling at Pagdandi - Tales of Tricksters (18+)

Ages 18 and above

We bring you Tales of Tricksters. In mythology, and in the study of folklore and religion, a trickster is a character in a story (god, goddess, spirit, man, woman, animal or shape shifting creatures), which exhibits a great degree of intellect or secret knowledge, and uses it to play tricks or otherwise disobey normal rules and conventional behaviour. Loki of Norse Myths, Raven the Native American god, Krishna/Vishnu of Hindu myths, Tenali Rama, Birbal, Gopal Bhand, the Animals of Panchatantra, characters played by Mehmood and Johnny Walker on cinema, are all tricksters. Loved by all for they used their tricks for the good of life.
