Kadam – Stepping into the future

An immersive experience of Indian classical dance!

Presented by : Mukul and Ghetto Tigers.

Mukul and Ghetto Tigers presents Kadam, a unique
melting pot of Indian classical dance with South Asian and
western music. Experience the exuberance of Ravel’s
Bolero with Kathak, and the confluence of folk with
Kuchiudi. The very contrasting elements of music and
dance blend in and out in perfect harmony. A journey to
celebrate collaborative disciplines and the oneness of
music across the border.
