October 14: Chitresh Das Institute
ODC Theater Presents
This is Also the Art with Chitresh Das Institute
Thursday, October 14, 5:00 PM PT
Kathak artist and choreographer Charlotte Moraga's new work, Mantram, an artistic creation exploring resonance through movement, music, percussion, and vedanta, the world's oldest, unbroken oral tradition. In this piece Moraga seeks out connection in a time when we have become so utterly disconnected, from ourselves, from one another, and from the earth. The music will be composed by renowned musician Alam Khan.
The Chitresh Das Institute (CDI), led by Artistic Director Charlotte Moraga, brings to the stage ground breaking, traditional, and collaborative performances exploring the depth and versatility of North Indian classical kathak dance and music, and is a community-based educational institution, focused on world-class standards, holistic knowledge, and seva (service).
It is so valuable to see/hear about the process. Transparency/vulnerability in art making that goes way beyond what a talkback after a show contributes. – ODC Patron, This is Also the Art
