- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-31835 EUCHARISTIC DANCE-DRAMA BOMBAY, India -- Dressed in the traditional garb of a holy man in India, Father George Proksch, S.V.D., is directing a 1,000-member dance team and 300-voice choir for a Eucharistic dance-drama to be presented during the 38th International Eucharistic Congress in Bombay (Nov. 28-Dec. 6.). At right is a rehearsal of “The Devil Tempts Eve,” a part of the presentation which will portray the deep significance of the Eucharist in Indian art-forms. Two performances are scheduled: Nov. 30 and Dec. 5 at Bombay’s Brabourne Stadium. Use of words, actions and dance are expected to convey the meaning of the Eucharist to many non-Christians. Father Proksch, 60, has been a Divine Word missionary in India for some 30 years, and has made numerous contributions to Hindu literature and Indian music.
