A scintillating dance experience celebrating Vivek Kinra's successful twenty years of performance in New Zealand, Anand : Joy in Motion promises to be a joyous event that transcends cultural boundaries to be enjoyed by all.
This grand performance of Anand showcases Kinra's acclaimed choreographic gems and features the mesmerizing dance drama Shiva Geeti Mala. He is joined by a large cast of 30 talented dancers of the Mudra Dance Company.
The first half of this performance will feature a glorious retrospect from Kinra's past performances. These dances are a kaleidoscope of motion, colour, music, mime and rhythm ranging from the abstract "Darpana", a reflection in movement, to the depiction of Lord Shiva as "Ardhanaree", a form where he is a perfect balance of masculine vigour and feminine grace.
The second half will feature a reworked version of the wonderful dance drama Shiva Geeti Mala originally created in 1996. Shiva Geeti Mala enacts a 200 year old love poem between Shiva, the cosmic dancer and Parvati, the beautiful daughter of the Himalayan mountains. This analogy expresses the complexities of human and divine love through this classic poem.
