From Akram Kahn "arguably the pre-eminent British dance-maker of his generation" (The Telegraph) comes a heartwarming story about our connections to the past, family and finding your own path.
CHOTTO DESH, meaning 'small homeland,' draws on Khan's unique quality of cross-cultural storytelling, creating a compelling tale of a young man's dreams and memories from Britain to Bangladesh. Performed as a solo dance piece, CHOTTO DESH integrates gorgeous interactive animation and an evocative score to create a brilliant and bewitching adventure
Influenced by his early training in Kathak, a classical dance of northern India, Akram Khan's lyrical choreography is internationally heralded for its beauty and unique artistry. Adapted from the award-winning DESH, Chotto Desh is the company's first piece of dance theater for family audiences, directed by Sue Buckmaster of Theatre-Rites
