HER STORY: A Bharatanatyam duet by Srinidhi Raghavan and Sahasra Sambamoorthi
‘Her Story’ portrays the lives of four women in Indian mythology - Kaikeyi, Devaki, Kannagi, and Andal. Recounting pivotal moments in the lives of these women, the dancers explore how these characters transformed the worlds they lived in through their ability to love unconditionally. History has judged these protagonists - condemning, glorifying, questioning, and revering these women for their actions; however, in "Her Story", the dancers reinterpret these conventional perceptions and portray these epic personalities as women willing to challenge the world for those they love.
Srinidhi Raghavan started learning Bharatanatyam at the age of five from her mother and guru, Usha Raghavan, and guru, Malathy Thothadri. Her experiences with dance have spanned several cultures and countries, including those of the UK, Europe, Barbados, the US and India..
Sahasra Sambamoorthi has been learning under the tutelage of her guru Ramya Ramnarayan for over 12 years. She had her arengetram in 1999 and has been performing in various venues in both India and the US ever since. Sahasra was also a recent recipient of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts Folk Arts Apprenticeship, under which her knowledge of Bharatanatyam has expanded profusely.
Time: 7:30pm - 9:30pm
At: Peter Norton Symphony Space: Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theater, 2537 Broadway at 95th Street, New York, NY
