The Lion's Roar

in the footsteps of the prince who became Buddha

Before the statues and beyond the legend, there was a man—Siddhartha, a prince who renounced his royal life in search of an answer to human suffering. In this solo dance theatre production by Wu Wei Company, choreographer and performer Emilie Anne brings this 2,500-year-old story into contemporary light through dance, mime, and poetry. With a rich musical score and visual projections created by a collective of artists, the stage becomes a landscape of inner and outer journeys. Read more

There are several figures across those three categories who left an unforgettable mark. Mythological figures often represent the archetypal strengths and complexities of women, pioneers in History broke social and political barriers, leaving a tangible legacy in courage and leadership, and impactful Women of Modern Times, like Malala Yousufzai, have influenced the 20th and 21st centuries through activism, environmentalism, and education.
