The Art Behind Our Performances
Every grand production is built on countless hours of rehearsal, dedicated teamwork, and a shared spiritual vision. Step behind the curtain to see how we bring Indian classical stories to life.
What a sweet gesture from the people who work behind the scenes. Our tailor, lighting technicians, and backstage crew gave us a surprise felicitation. They are the true pillars of our strength, and we are ever so grateful.
What a team, what a tour! I can't get over the extraordinary times spent with our artists, who are more like soul mates. This behind-the-scenes reel captures the fun and camaraderie of our Krishnaa US tour.
The caption says it all: "They move like they're one soul & that soul is MUSIC!" This is what makes our Abhinava Dance Company dancers so special. It takes another level of understanding to move from the soul.
This heartwarming message from a mother, whose 5-year-old son connected our dance to nature, reminds us of the profound impact of art. If our work touches the lives of children, it is worth every second.
Another part of the touching message from Sangeetha Iyer. Knowing that our art can inspire a child to see the connection between a performance and the natural world is the greatest reward for an artist.
The final part of the beautiful message. We are so grateful for creating pieces of art that stay with people long after the performance is over. It is a blessing to be able to share these traditions.
On her 94th birthday, we wish a very happy birthday to our dearest Kummiben, the legendary Guru Kumudini Lakhia. The knowledge, creativity, and conviction she has shared with us over the last 30 years has been a great experience.
This is one of our favorite group choreographies where we play with harmony and contrast. Watch as our dancers move in perfect unison, only to diverge into intricate patterns, creating a beautiful visual effect.
This beautiful Kannada verse by poet Somanatha speaks about how one can learn and develop good virtues in life. It reminds us to learn from the wise, from scriptures, from practice, and from good company.
In every footstep, a story unfolds. This image captures the synchronized grace of our Kathak dancers, their movements weaving an enchanting tale of rhythm and expression.
About Behind the Scenes
Our productions are never just a solo effort; they are shaped by the silent work of our costume designers, lighting technicians, and backstage crew who are the true pillars of our performances. When you engage us for a production or event, you are gaining this entire ecosystem of support, ensuring that every transition, prop, and light cue is as purposeful as the dance itself.
We believe that a performance is more than movement; it is a manifestation of collective energy. Our process begins long before the dancer steps onto the stage. It starts with a dialogue between our dancers, musicians, and stage crew.
The Technical Foundation
Whether we are performing in Bengaluru or touring internationally, our technical riders for lighting, sound, and stage flooring are crafted to maintain the integrity of our Kathak and Bharatanatyam movements. We do not just stage dances; we architect experiences. Every prop and cloth wave is designed to enhance the visual storytelling.
The Human Element
Our backstage team—tailors, wardrobe assistants, and lighting technicians—are integral members of our artistic family. Their sincerity and hard work ensure that the aesthetic delight of Rasa reaches the audience unimpeded. When our technicians and artists move in harmony, the stage becomes a space for stories to breathe.
Why This Matters for Your Event
When you look at hiring us for a corporate event, festival, or school production, you are engaging a team that understands the gravity of production. From the way a prop is crafted to the way music is layered, we apply the same rigour to a short duet as we do to our large-scale theatrical acts. We are here to bring that same level of detail and devotion to your special occasion.
