About the Show
Neha Kumar and the Modern Theatre present
Nrityamala
a Bharatanatyam dance performance
“I am dedicated to nurturing dancers of all ages and guiding them in discovering the richness of their cultural heritage through this timeless art form.”
Neha
Kumar is a Bharatanatyam dancer and the artistic director of Nritya Dance
Academy in Westborough, Massachusetts. With over 25 years of experience in this
classical art form, she has performed on stages across the United States and in
India. Beyond
the stage, Neha has used Bharatanatyam as a medium for impact—supporting
meaningful causes and raising funds for underprivileged children in both the
U.S. and in India.
Bharatanatyam
is an Indian Classical Dance form that originated in the temples of South India
over 2000 years ago involving intense foot movements in rhythmic patterns in
combination with facial expressions to depict stories of Hindu mythology. Bharatanatyam is performed to Carnatic (South Indian
classical) music, where the ragam defines the melodic structure and mood
of the song, and talam provides the rhythmic framework.
