*************

"A Story and a Song" is a new production that has been developed by Aparna
Sindhoor, artistic director of Navarasa Dance Theater, based on women's
stories. An interactive dialogue between Kannada folk tales and Native
American tales--along with narratives from contemporary grandmothers,
friends & family--it is a tale of women, environment & love. The performance
encompasses spoken word, dance, theater & contact improvisation in a
powerful way.

Navarasa Dance Theater was founded by renowned Bharatanatyam dancer and
choreographer, Aparna Sindhoor in 1991 in Mysore, India. She has garnered
international acclaim for uniting traditional forms with contemporary themes
of social relevance. Since moving to the U.S. in 1996, Navarasa has
presented to diverse audiences at libraries, colleges, dance festivals &
Community Church, even at a World Social Forum. They have also toured
extensively in North America, Europe and India, where they performed earlier
this winter.
