Kaash – Akram Khan

EXPLORE THE UNIVERSE IN 55 MINUTES THROUGH HINDU GODS, BLACK HOLES,
INDIAN TIME CYCLES, TABLAS, CREATION AND DESTRUCTION.

We are delighted to bring this stunning production to Bath for another
chance to see Akram Khan’s first full-length work which took the
dance world by storm in 2002. With set design by sculptor Anish
Kapoor, and music by Nitin Sawhney, Kaash (Hindi word for “if
only”) continues Khan’s quest to build bridges between the worlds
of contemporary dance and the Indian classical dance form Kathak.

international cast of performers that sheds a new light and energy on
