PAST EVENTS

The dome hides the dying embers of the day as Sultan Shahjahan and his Queen, always inseparable, rise from their graves to spend one final night together at their palace. What words will we hear whispered through the moonlit halls of their Taj Mahal? Will the lovers recount their memories?

Or will they weep into each other’s arms — one final night in the face of ephemeral love?
