Aakash Odedra Company, the award-winning South Asian dance company present Songs of the Bulbul.
Songs of the Bulbul is inspired by the ancient Sufi myth of a bulbul songbird captured and held in captivity, choreographed by Rani Khanam with music by Rushil Ranjan.
The bird was bound ever closer and slowly perished through despair, singing more sweetly as its end drew nearer, until it uttered one final, heartbreaking and piercingly beautiful song just before it departed the mortal world.
Rooted in the expansive music, dance, and poetry traditions of Sufism, this new work emerges as a sensitive dialogue between the ferocious physicality of Kathak and the spiritual journey of Sufism, a path seeking unity with the Divine.
All tickets £30.
