Indian Dance Performance - for Oxfam's Sustainable Mining Campaign


Hello friends,

Darpana: The Mirror of Gesture 
Friday June 15th at 7:30pm. Darebin Arts & Entertainment Centre 
Tickets are $30 full, $25 concession and seniors 

I would like to invite you to, Darpana: The Mirror of Gesture, a performance of classical South Indian dancing to raise funds for Oxfam Australia’s Sustainable Mining campaign.








I learn a style of classical South Indian dancing known as Bharata Natyam, from Dr. Chandrabhanu’s Bharatalaya Academy of Indian Dance. It is an ancient dance style derived from the temple dancers of South India and involves a demi-plies position and the striking of the feet to weave rhythms. Gold bells are worn around the ankles and costumes are weaved from silk and gold with traditional adornments on the head, neck and arms. Sets for this show are painted by renowned Australian artist, the late Geoffrey Goldie.

The dances we will perform depict deities of Hindu mythology and this particular performance comprises 7 dances pertaining to the stories of Lord Krishna, Ganesha, the 10 incarnations of Vishnu (Dasavataram) and Shiva. My sister and I have come together for this show to celebrate our love for dance and to raise funds for a great cause.

The performance will be held at the Darebin Arts & Entertainment Centre, Friday June 15th at 7:30pm. Tickets are $30 full, $25 concession and seniors. Further details are in the flyer attached.

Please pass on this invitation to your other colleagues! Friends and family also welcome.
Have a lovely weekend.
