Based on the nurturing wisdom of women storytellers of the Persian and Mogul
empires, our performance tells a poetic story of passion, love, betrayal, and
constancy in the turmoil of the politics of the day.

Tender Stone attempts to call up the collective memory, evoking an ancient
wisdom and bringing it into our contemporary world. Within the hidden depths
of the molecular, cellular, and imaginative self of each one of us are the echoes
of primordial myths and ways of knowing.
