THE PARRAVUE. ISSUE 1: April 2025
Enjoy a dynamic performance of classical Indian dance by the Ruchi Sanghi Dance Company, a Sydney dance school focused on the art form from northern India known as Kathak.
Kathak is one of the eight main genres of ancient Indian classical dance and its name comes from the Kathakars or ‘storytellers’ of northern India.
Experience the rhythmic footwork, precise and fast whirling movements and subtle, evocative abhinaya (mimetic dance) forms of Kathak in this performance.
This event is in collaboration with the Consulate General of India, Sydney and the Swami Vivekananda Cultural Centre. It follows a screening of the short film Twirl that explores Kathak practice in Sydney.”
