Krithi Nathan will be presenting a solo Bharatnatyam presentation titled Nāri: An Exploration of the Feminine as part of the Natya Samaagam Dance Festival held in Boston, Massachusetts.

Date: Sunday June 14, 2-3:15pm

Venue: Boston Center for the Arts

Plaza Black Box, 539 Tremont St, Boston, MA 02116

About the show:

A nurturer. A devotee. A warrior.

A woman is often defined by the roles she is expected to embody but can she exist beyond them?

Nāri explores the many facets of womanhood through the lens of Bharatanatyam, delving into the strength, vulnerability, grace, desire, surrender, and complexity that shape the feminine spirit. A celebration of the feminine in all its beauty, power, and…contradictions.
