It might be ambitious to solve the world's prejudices in a one-hour Fringe show, but the creators of "Bezubaan: The Voiceless" give it the Bollywood try. Their answer to hate and ignorance, told through a polychrome collage of theater and dance, is love, especially the intercultural kind. With elaborate costumes, fancy foot patterns, and dance that fuses traditional Indian styles with western forms including swing, Bollywood Dance Scene's latest offering doesn't disappoint. The meta-theatrical narration gets a bit heavy-handed at times, but it's a fun show. (5:30 p.m. Sun., 7 p.m. Wed., 2:30 Sat., Rarig Center Thurst, 330 21st Av. S., Mpls.)
