In 'Sacred Earth,' the dancers create a sacred space to honor the divinity in the natural world and the sustenance we derive from it. Featuring original projections by Warli artist Anil Vangad, 'Sacred Earth' is the choreographers' vision of the beautiful, fragile relationship between nature and man.

India Dance Festival (IDF) is a celebration of Indian dance and culture. Since 2011, IDF has been a festival where classical dance styles such as Bharatanatyam, Kathak and Odissi come together with new interpretations by talented makers. A festival where we celebrate the unprecedented richness of Indian dance in intense performances that are both classical and contemporary.
