  • Description

Srishti Dance return for an incredible new show.

This is a triple bill of Bharatanatyam dance performed by a new generation of British-
South Asian dancers who will showcase this Indian classical dance style from
southern India, characterised by strong lines, geometry, symmetry, as well as highly
expressive mime. Bharatanatyam is probably the most popular and versatile
classical Indian dance style performed in the UK and worldwide. 

Through exquisite movements, powerful rhythm and striking ensemble work, dancers
will present two works choreographed by award-winning choreographer and Srishti’s
Artistic Director Nina Rajarani MBE, and one by inimitable guest choreographer
Mavin Khoo. Versatile music composer and Karnatik vocalist Y Yadavan has created
the music score for this triple bill. 

Srishti is a leading South Asian arts organisation based in London creates work
that combines Indian classical dance forms of Bharatanatyam and Kathak, alongside
Karnatik vocals and live music. Srishti believes in maintaining the authenticity of
Indian classical dance and music whilst presenting these forms in innovative ways
and within contemporary contexts in the UK and internationally.
 
Srishti Pathways is funded by Arts Council England and supported by Harrow Arts
Centre, Harrow Council and Creative Academy, Slough.
