A powerful reimagination of the iconic ballet in the classical Indian dance style Bharatanatyam.
Igor Stravinsky’s avant-garde score The Rite of Spring stunned Paris audiences when it debuted in 1913 and has been hugely influential ever since. Award-winning choreographer Seeta Patel reimagines this iconic ballet in the powerful classical Indian dance style Bharatanatyam, bridging the two technical, powerful, and evocative art forms of Western classical music and Indian classical dance.

Discover a transformative re-telling of this pagan folk story through intricate rhythmic footwork, expressive prowess, geometric and dynamic movements. Looking beyond notions of the exotic and orientalist perceptions of Eastern classical arts, and departing from gimmickry cultural baggage, the production is a celebration of life at its best. Showcasing some of the finest Indian classical dance talent from across the globe, it’s one of the most exciting flirtations between East and West in current times.

Duration: 45 minutes
