Music meets storytelling in a blend of Punjabi rhythms, American jazz and collective celebration. A moving call to compassion and connection.

Sunny Jain draws on his South Asian heritage and experience as a second-generation immigrant in America to dive into the concept of "love force"—satyāgraha—embracing your oppressor with compassion. Jain, founder of Red Baraat, brings his signature talent for creating immediate community to theater, blurring the lines between performers and audience. Each element of Love Force is carefully crafted for frequencies, rhythm, and vibrations unleashing a powerful gathering through song and story. Love Force explores the universal nature of music, and how through compassion and love we can break down barriers created by religion, cultural traditions, racism and time. Jain invites us to feel the past in the present and to imagine healing through love.
