Akram Khan’s ‘Chotto Desh’ with music by Jocelyn Pook will be performed at Sadlers Wells East in London, from the 30th October -1st November.
Tickets are available here.
‘Chotto Desh, which means ‘small homeland’, draws on Akram Khan’s unique cross-cultural storytelling, creating a compelling tale of a boy’s dreams and memories from Britain to Bangladesh. Adapted by Sue Buckmaster from Khan’s Olivier Award-winning solo DESH, this heart-warming story follows a young man trying to find his place in the world.
It’s a tale full of wonder, in which a man returns to childhood memories of his grandparents and the stories they told him. Blending Kathak and contemporary dance with an exquisite mix of spoken text, dreamlike animation, visuals and specially composed music, Chotto Desh is an enchanting and poignant dance-theatre experience for children aged 5+ and their families to enjoy together.’
