Rising at NAC Studio

Rising features exciting young British- Indian Kathak dancer Aakash Odedra performing to perfection in solo works created especially for him. By encouraging top-ranked choreographers Akram Khan, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Russell Maliphant to highlight different aspects of himself – lyrical and graceful, brutal and raw, edgy and animalistic – Odedra the dancer originates an idiosyncratic new flavor of contemporary dance that is uniquely his own. Rising has been wildly praised by critics, amazed by Odedra’s jangling, rogue energy, his astonishing technique and his hypnotically undulating body.
