Fwd: Indian dancers 7 pm at SU Wednesday--FREE!!!

[Rose MacGregor]

Just a quick note to tell you about a dance performance at Salisbury University on Wednesday, March 2 in the Holloway Hall Auditorium. I got to preview the show today and it is really amazing. There are live musicians playing violin, flute, tabla, and hurdy gurdy. The dancers dance beautifully with ankle bells and mudras (hand gestures) there is a story telling portion that is enrapturing and brings to life Indian Deities. The costumes, lights, and colors are entrancing along with the music and dance- truely a unique experience. There is narration that really immerses you in the Odissi dance experience.

Hope to see you there!

Indian Dance Event

In India, learning classical dance takes a village—literally. In 1990, Protima Gauri founded Nrityagram (Indian for “dance village”), the country’s first modern residential school for Indian classical dance instruction. The Nrityagram Dance Ensemble made its U.S. debut in New York in 1996, earning rave reviews. On Wednesday, March 2, the acclaimed ensemble performs as part of SU’s “India and the Sub-Continent” cultural events series. Their show is 7 p.m. in Holloway Hall Auditorium. The dancers come to SU following a show at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. The ensemble has performed to sold-out venues throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. The New York Times hails Nrityagram as “a modern devotion to sacred Indian ritual.” The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette calls the ensemble “just brilliant.” The Hindu lauds its performances as “pure magic.” Sponsored by SU’s Office of Cultural Affairs and World Artist Experiences, Inc., admission is free and the public is invited. Tickets are not required. For information call 410-543-6271.
