NATyA premieres a stunning interpretation of an ancient Indian epic -
the Ramayana - in their annual production: Lost Tales: Glimpses from
1000 Ramayanas. NATyA weaves together the forgotten voices of this
epic tale, rendering heroes and villains in vividly human hues. Lost
Tales is a remarkable collaboration of diverse art forms and artists,
combining the Indian classical dance traditions of Bharatnatyam,
Kathak, and Odissi, set to an eclectic musical backdrop of Carnatic,
jazz, and world rhythms, and punctuated by spoken word poetry. This
one-of-a-kind production is designed for all audiences, even those
not versed in the Ramayana or classical Indian dance.

NATyA is a young Bay Area dance company whose mission is to help
audiences appreciate classical Indian dance traditions - their
vibrant energy, geometry, rhythm, and sophisticated alphabet of
gestures and expressions, and their history. Through narration,
contemporary music, and portrayals of familiar world stories, NATyA
brings out fresh blossoms from ancient roots.
