Sudha Bhuchar | Kristine Landon-Smith
Tamasha Theatre's stunning new play
Strictly Dandia, Tamasha Theatre Company's new play, takes us into the competitive world of the Navratri Festival where regional and caste rivalries abound in a bid to outdo each other with smart moves and step variations.
An affectionate satirical tribute to British Gujaratis adapting their Hindu dance festivities to London street culture. A disco-dandia competition brings the Hindu Juliet and Muslim Romeo together in spit of their communities' disapproval."All heart and humour, irresistibly charming and shamelessly enjoyable... a treat" Sunday Times [on Fourteen Songs, Two Weddings and a Funeral]
Published to tie in with the premiere at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith in January 2004, prior to a nation-wide tour.
