Book Description

September 1, 1997 Performing Arts Studies
The classical dances of the subcontinent have undergone fission, been deconstructed and become part of a contemporary dance idiom. Some of the most innovative work has taken place because of interaction with Western dancers or because it was conceived in a Western and/or global context. This work examines the British experience, the work and contribution of Indian dance practioners based in Britain working primarily in a British/European context and how these factors have contributed to the development of Indian dance.
