Akram Khan Company
Akram Khan and his London based dance company combine traditional Indian dance culture and European Modernity in a unique way. In his new work ma, which in Hindi means more or less "mother" and "earth", Khan uses his rich experiences as a classically trained kathak dancer. He creates his own fascinating universe with the harmonious interplay between his six dancers and three musicians (cello, Islamic hymns and Indian percussion).
