Chhandika Boston Dance Troupe

Kick off our summer reading program with Chhandika Boston Dance Troupe. The dancers will perform a Northern Indian dance called Kathak, a highly sophisticated performing art characterized by intricate footwork; expressive movement of the hands, face, and body; rhythmic intensity; swift turns; and elegant stances. Wearing a string of small, brass bells on each ankle, the dancer alternates between choreographed stories, dance recitation, technical footwork, and playful, spontaneous interchange with the musicians. This event is free, but space is limited. Please pick up a ticket one half hour before the program. For ages 4 and up. Before or after the event, sign up for summer reading!
