In 1773, a group of British colonists rebelled against their government and its unfair taxation policy by throwing hundreds of pounds of tea into Boston Harbour.

In 1930, a group of people from various communities and backgrounds gathered to march to the sea in Gujarat, India to make salt in defiance of the British tax of salt.

But how did they get here? What pushes the ordinary person to participate in revolution?

Waves of Resistance is a comparative production which places these two points in history next to each other. Through music, dance, and theatrical storytelling, the students of Silambam Phoenix present two tales of two disparate sets of people fighting for their right to self-governance.
