CHYK Production - Navadha Bhakti
We're excited to announce a CHYK dance-drama production on Navadha Bhakti, the nine paths of divine love as described in the Ramcharitmanas by Goswami Tulsidas Ji. We plan to illustrate this using nine stories from regions across India, through a variety of Indian classical dance and music forms, including original music and choreographies!
There's a role for everyone across music, dance, acting, scriptwriting, backstage, tech, logistics, marketing, design and much more.
