World Premiere of Sthree May, 2009

**Review of Sthree from Dance Magazine**

Ragamala Music and Dance Theater's work provides a
bridge between cultures both ancient and modern,
exploring a unique style of living poetry for the stage.
Rooted in Bharatanatyam, a classical dance form from southern India,
Ragamala blends dance, music, and poetry.
Old forms are used in new ways to retain the past,
enhance the present, and inspire the future.

Ragamala in the News

“Ragamala’s forays into cross-cultural dance are
increasingly fascinating, drawing connections between
the elegantly sumptuous, percussively expressive
style of its classic dance and the dances of other cultures.
--Mike Steele, Minneapolis Star Tribune

"The Ramaswamys create some of the most poetic, enlightening, and culturally relevant dance work in the Twin Cities today." --MinnPost.com

"Ragamala shows a way into the twenty-first century for all classical forms. The thrill that the dancers feel in their own strength and grace rolls across the audience; their happy and powerful beauty is one we understand and aspire to."
--Minneaplis/St. Paul Magazine
