In Children of Dharma, a Northrop Centennial Commission, Ragamala Dance Company creates a series of mesmerizing vignettes illustrated with poetic movement, lush visual imagery, and truthful emotion, transporting viewers into a mythic world of warfare, magic, and beauty. The show explores the concept of dharma, or “right action,” embodied through dance. This multidisciplinary experience incorporates a literary epic, South Asian cultural history, contemporary original music, and Bharatanatyam dance.
Ages: Recommended for Grades 5-12.
