The SUPPORT Foundation of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother is staging the production from November 5 to December 10 in the centre’s Main Hall.

It honours Queen Sirikit and carries forward her royal aspirations, while marking the fourth-cycle birthday celebrations of Her Majesty the Queen.

Presented in eight scenes, the production traces Sita’s life from her birth as Ravana’s daughter and upbringing by Janaka to her marriage to Rama.

She accompanies Rama and his younger brother, Lakshmana, into the forest for 14 years before Ravana abducts her and takes her to Lanka.

Rama pursues her with the support of monkey forces and Ravana’s younger brother, Vibhishana.

After the war, they return to Ayodhya, where Sita asks to prove her fidelity by walking through fire.

A later misunderstanding leads Rama to banish her, and she goes to live with the sage Valmiki in the forest.

Later scenes feature Sita’s sons, Kusha and Lava, a royal horse released by Rama to find anyone challenging his authority, and Hanuman’s defeat.

Rama subsequently fights Kusha, but neither can harm the other, revealing their relationship.

Shiva then helps Rama and Sita reconcile and blesses their life together.
