Every tale has a story deeper than the narrative. And it is indeed true with Indian mythological stories. Come revel in the festival of lights, as we stage three lores associated with celebrations of Diwali:
🎭 The story of Naraka-Chaturdashi - preserving mother earth (Act 5)
🎭 The glory of AdiShakti - power of HER (Act 10)
💃 The radiance of Light - illumination of self (Closing Act)
When a candle lights another, it does not lose it's own, it only illuminates the other while shining bright on it's own!

📣 Shout out to ALL our performers in comments

Apace with the aging time, traversing through eons of technological evolutionary ages, we, the humans, now animate in the Information Age; commanded by the exponential golden couple, 0 & 1.

Phones and computers were made to save human time; this is the most misleading modern myth. People have become more busy than ever with their phones. These small technological monsters have become an integral part of our existent being, like a part of our bodies, and as consumers, we are just bending to what is trending.

Now Inventions have become the mother of necessities; you may not need the technology, but need to have it.
And the major smartphone queen/kingdoms are in contention to cash-in on this. The ultimate game to gain the top-spot,the Phone-Market’s Lithium-Ion throne, is afoot.

Based on the most celebrated TV show of our times, "Game of Thrones", rhyflexion brings to you, a light-hearted, parodic skit depicting this contention for the Smartphone throne. This act is based on phony events happening in virtual reality, but you don’t need any VR goggles or any mobile plan to watch this. Hope our text, talk and data can bring you few minutes of entertainment.

Tethering the digital with the medieval, speed-dialing into this digital-medieval realm, we call you all with “Caller-tune of ice and fire”, we call you to, “Game of Phones”.
