Indian dance company to play Hexham venue

Posted by Kim Carmichael on Oct 22, 08 01:13 PM in What’s On

Hexham is to play host to one of the world's foremost Indian dance companies.

The Kala Chethena Kathakali theatre company will perform the show Kathakali at the Queen's Hall on Friday October 24.

Kathakali, meaning 'story play', embraces drama, dance, music, visual arts and ritual to create one of the world's most exotic, visually exciting, and powerful forms of theatre.

Colourful costumes and elaborate three dimensional make-up magically transform the actors, singers, and drummers into gods, kings, devils and princesses, allowing them to tell universal stories of the struggle between good and evil through gesture, emotion and expression.

The show starts at 7.30pm and tickets cost £12.50 for adults, £9.50 for concessions and £6.50 for students.

For more information, call 01434 652477.
