Story by Amina Khayyam
Selected for ROH2 Firsts 2007,
Laal Shaari is a compelling tale of a woman denied the most important thing as a young bride – a Laal Shaari (a red dress).
The production explored the theatricalisation of the classical Indian dance form of Kathak, rethinking it through a process of deconstruction of tatkar, bhav and abhinaya, and engaged a sceneography working with the notion of emptiness as presence.
