Cleopatra, Egypt\u2019s enigmatic queen, wields sensuality as a political tool, while Egle, a simple girl, is forced into marriage with a serpent prince, embodying innocence and sacrifice. Their journeys, shaped by love and fate, culminate in tragic loss and transformation.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-1 wp-block-gallery alignleft has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"4648\"  src=\"https:\/\/citf.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/citf8-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4648\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A single actor enacts both roles through physical theatre and ritualistic elements, including Kerala\u2019s Sarpakalam (snake-motif floor painting), dance, lighting, and live painting.
