This evening-length work combines contemporary dance, jazz, ballet, and influences from South Asian dance genres to depict the victory of light over darkness, inspired by the mythological gods of fire, water, wind, and earth prevalent in many world cultures. 

Haque and an ensemble of musicians begin the evening with a short performance of South Asian-influenced jazz.

Join us for this extraordinary fusion of
South Asian dance and jazz!
