Sensing the deep connection between menstrual cycles and lunar cycles, ancient people believed that women had 'magical moon blood' in them, which was used to create life and so, we were all descendents of the moon. This and many other ideas connected to the celestial object are part of the devised performance, Moonfool that will be staged at Prithvi this evening. Produced by Shapeshift and directed by Sujay Saple — his second play post Unselfed in 2012 — this event marks Moonfool's first public performance. "As a visual motif, the moon has always fascinated me. While the sun represents permanence, the moon is constantly changing and as a result, more mystical with a dark side," says Saple, justifying the reason for devising a performance around the moon.
