Synopsis The Svapnagata India Festival culminates in a new collaborative production by Akram Khan and Nitin Sawhney. Confluence fuses Sawhney’s music with Khan’s blend of classical kathak and contemporary technique. It takes the form of a conversation between two friends and artistic collaborators, looking back on personal experiences, respective influences and a productive creative partnership. Exploring how the independent stories of these two kindred spirits converged, Confluence offers the opportunity to not only re-visit their collaborative work together (Kaash, zero degrees and bahok) but also includes a new piece of choreography by Akram Khan to a specially created composition by Nitin Sawhney. A Sadler's Wells Production. Svapnagata India Festival
