About
Hindus believe that the coconut is the purest form of offering that one can render unto God. The fruit is unique in many respects. The nectar-like water that it carries is pure and untouched by human hands. Its nutty flesh is the source of the rich, creamy coconut milk that flavours curries, laksas and sweets.
Coconuts are also used to describe Indians living in the West – brown on the outside, white on the inside. In this performance, Radha La Bia will demonstrate how To Crack a Nut while commenting on our borders.
