Akademi presents ‘Maaya’ as part of the Arts in Parliament festival
Maaya will be a creative journey encompassing the richness of a vivid sensory experience, presenting a piece that projects the aesthetic values of contemporary Indian culture into this distinguished space in the heart of Westminster. The whole site will be transformed, thus achieving a unique spectacle of South Asian dance using contemporary and classical performers. Directed by a highly-renowned choreographer Gauri Sharma Tripathi, reworked by Nathaniel Parchment and Shivani Sethia, the Hall will be animated through a live cast creating a magical dream- like experience in which the audience will be immersed for 20 minutes. This will culminate in an exclusive finale performed by eminent Indian dancer.
Akademi have been selected from among the UK’s leading Arts organisations to take part in Parliament’s Olympic artsinitiative, Arts in Parliament. The prestigious series of events, which will be Parliament’s answer to the 2012 Festival, will see a unique cultural programme take place over the summer of 2012 in and around Westminster. The programme will include showcases from artists and arts organisations from across the UK.
Please arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of the performance to get through Parliamentary security.
Tickets are FREE but must be requested in advace via the Arts in Parliament website.
