NowHere
NowHere, a new contemporary South Asian dance production by choreographer Divya Kasturi, promising powerful visual imagery and stunning new choreography and explores the feeling of belonging ‘there’, ‘here’ and ‘inbetween’.
Using two of the most popular Indian classical dance styles of Bharatanatyam and Kathak, along with specially composed music, vocals and with artistic collaborations from Kate Flatt, and John Marc-Gowans, NowHere examines the sensibilities of ‘nowhere’ and ‘now here’.
