WORLD MUSIC PRESENTS INDIA’S
NRITYAGRAM DANCE ENSEMBLE
April 29 – May 1 at Zero Arrow Theatre

“One of the most luminous dance events of the year!” – New York Times

WORLD MUSIC presents India’s Nrityagram Dance Ensemble on Friday April 29, 7pm, Saturday, April 30, 8pm and Sunday, May 1, 3pm at Zero Arrow Theatre, Intersection of Arrow Street and Massachusetts Ave., Harvard Square, Cambridge.  Tickets are $30. For tickets and information call World Music (617) 876-4275 or buy online at www.WorldMusic.org.

 Dressed in ornate costumes of flowing, colorful fabrics and silver jewelry, the Nrityagram Dance Ensemble uses an exacting and elaborate vocabulary of movement to tell stories based on ancient myths, folk tales and love ballads. From the outskirts of Bangalore in southern India, this world-renowned ensemble transports viewers to enchanted worlds of magic and spirituality with the sensuous flow of Odissi, the oldest of India's seven classical dance forms. Its sculptural poses and soft, curving body lines suggest ancient Hindu temple sculptures.
