Shane Shambhu Company creates dynamic visual theatre rooted in the traditional South Indian dance form of Bharatanatyam. By representing the modern society we live in and depicting narratives that expose human experiences and behaviour the company creates works that stir up emotions in all of us.
Through innovative physical storytelling and the use of devised characters, the company transports audiences through an emotional journey and a shared aesthetic experience to question themes of universal relevance.
The company uses an organic movement language stemming from Shane Shambhu’s backgrounds in Bharatanatyam, contemporary dance and theatre. By integrating all these forms and creating a unique style of theatre, the company is re-inventing Indian dance for the 21st Century."
