Folk Rhythms and Festive Spirits

Join us on a vibrant and interactive journey through the rich folk dance traditions of India, as we explore how our ancestors celebrated nature through movement and rhythm. This performance pays homage to the harmony between humans and the natural world—where every drumbeat echoed the thunder, every step mimicked the wind, and every gesture mirrored the grace of birds and animals. From the thunderous call of the Parai drum to the flowing elegance of Oyilattam, the majestic movements of Mayilattam (Peacock Dance), and the festive rhythms of Kolattam, each scene invites the audience to participate, celebrate, and connect with nature through dance. Ending in a powerful medley, this show brings together traditional dances like Kolattam, and Kummi, and culminates in a joyful celebration of Pongal, Tamil New Year or Deepavali—depending on the season—highlighting our eternal bond with the earth and its rhythms. Let’s dance together. Let’s celebrate together. Let’s honour the spirit of nature in us all.
