In this episode we continue our conversation with Emielyn Das and Harrison Lewis about their new musical: Seven Steps Around the Fire.
Seven Steps Around the Fire follows a young Indian-American woman who must interpret visions of her past seven lifetimes as her queer relationship is threatened by the cultural expectation of arranged marriage. When she unearths secrets surrounding her mother’s own identity, she must make the impossible choice between her family and breaking free from the endless karmic cycle holding her down. Featuring a contemporary folk/pop score fused with the sounds of Indian Classical Music, Seven Steps Around the Fire explores Hinduism through the lens of sexuality, asking the timeless question: what will we sacrifice in the name of love?
This episode features demo recordings of the songs “The Pathway to Brahma-Nirvana” performed by the Company of Seven Steps Around the Fire as well as “Throw Me a Marigold” performed by Sabrina Shah and Ruchir Khazanchi.
