Maya Dance Theatre - Past Productions

BEYOND BOLLYWOOD-The rhythms of Dance explores the key elements of ethnic Indian art forms: music and dance; specifically rhythms and Mudras – hand gestures and body movements, of Indian dance. The performance will show audiences how rhythms and movements are interlinked  and how beats – the basic unit of time in music, form the basis of dance. They will also demonstrate the various Mudras and explain what each Mudra means and symbolizes. The audience will also be encouraged to attempt the different hand gestures and leg movements with guidance from the dancers.
