NOTE: This performance includes flashing images that may affect photosensitive viewers.
The Alchemist’s Soul is a haunting and immersive dance theater production created by Asha Rowland, which reflects on the dualities of shadows, avarice, exploitation, and conservation. The Alchemist, consumed by desperate obsession to possess, transmutes their soul and spirals into the nightmare of their mind, prompting us to reflect on the consequences of actions and the balance between ambition and collective responsibility. This work draws inspiration from the Samudra Manthana, Al-Kimiya, Rasa Shastra, and sigil work, to create a world that explores the psychological state of the Alchemist character.
