Amritha Jayakrishnan: Madhavi

Friday 28 March | 7.30pm | Mind the Gap Studios, Silk Warehouse, Patent Street, Bradford, BD9 4SA | Pay What you Decide

Madhavi is the lesser-known tale of ultimate female rebellion from the Mahabharata, the most popular work of Indian Mythology. It is the tragic and heroic tale of one woman’s plight and fight for a freedom so simple – her freedom of choice. Inspired by the work of her Grandfather, celebrated poet ONV Kurap, Amritha’s telling of Madhavi’s story, through Bharatanatyam dance, is an act of solidarity with woman across the world as they struggle for their own freedom.

Amritha Jayakrishnan is a British South-Asian performing artist, management consultant and writer. She is trained in Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi and is the founder of London Adavu –  a not-for-profit dancer development space for Bharatanatyam dancers that has grown to a beautiful learning community of 250+ dancers in London.
