Like all of Natya Dance Theatre’s canon, “Sharīra Sharīri – Held Within” is representative of Artistic Director Hema Rajagopalan’s philosophy, put simply, “to get better, to love each other, to share, to lose one’s ego.” Rather than narrating philosophy, Natya’s work embodies it, allowing the audience to experience phenomenally the interconnection of all beings and how they are intertwined with the source of life, a message as old as the practice of philosophy itself, re-imagined by a classical dance company whose tradition is to be contemporary.
