About the Show
Meera, a princess of yore, dedicated her heart to Lord Krishna from an early age. As she grew, she became his most famous devotee as well as a trailblazer, social reformer, and prolific composer of songs that are still sung to this day. She endeavored to empower commoners, renounced her own priveleged life, and undertook a moving journey to some of the holiest sites associated with Lord Krishna.
This one-of-a kind musical in English captures her life from childhood through marriage and exile, and finally to her death and beyond. An imaginative tale appropriate for all ages, Meera captures one of the most famous women in the history of India.
