Mahabharata | Media Adaptations

The Mahabharata was adapted as a full-length stage play by Jean-Claude Carriere and premiered in Avignon, France in 1985. Peter Brook's English translation of Carriere's play toured in 1987-88 with an international cast. Brook later directed a five-and-a-half-hour film version of the Mahabharata, televised worldwide in 1989; available on videocassette from The Parabola Video Library.
