Songs of Amavasya (अमावस्या) Naatak's first grand musical
Presenting songs from Naatak's 46th production and its very first grand musical: AMAVASYA.
About the Play:
The princess Amavasya is devastatingly beautiful: black as night. Or she is so hideous that a glimpse of her milky-white face sends the victim into a three-day slumber. No one knows, because she is hidden behind a mask. What will her people see on the day she uncovers her face? Performed with music, dance, spectacular sets and costumes, AMAVASYA is an entertaining and humorous fairy-tale for grown-ups – both dark-skinned and light-skinned ones.
The play, performed in 2014 was a Knight Foundation Grant winner. It featured a unique combination of theater, music and dance – theater by NAATAK, live music composed and performed by Nachiketa Yakkundi and group, and original dance choreographed by Rasika Kumar and performed by Abhinaya Dance Company.
