Thank you to Kaylee Arca for this beautiful piece on "Ramayana!" in Gilroy Life!

"'Ramayana!' is a musical retelling of the Hindu story 'Ramayana,' written by the ancient Indian poet Valmiki. Mount Madonna’s version included original songs, traditional Indian dances, and martial arts scenes as princes Rāma and Lakshmana journeyed to Lanka in their quest to rescue Princess Sītā from King Rāvana.

The school’s retelling was written and translated by Baba Hari Dass, a monk who founded the Mount Madonna Center. The entire story is traditionally told during a 10-day period. However, Baba Hari Dass condensed the story for the 3.5-hour musical production.

Throughout the musical, audiences experienced demons and monster rigs come to life, including a fire-breathing dragon and a 25-foot tall puppet of Kumbhakarna, the younger brother of King Ravana.
