Premiere
greenroom Artist In Residence
Bharata Natyam is the oldest of all classical dance forms in India, known for its grace, purity and statuesque poses. At the forefront of the form in the UK, Sankalpam is working with artists from the fields of contemporary dance and theatre to push the boundaries of Bharata Natyam.

Corpo-realities is an intimate triple bill, commissioned artists include former Southbank Centre resident choreographer, Stephanie Schober, whose precise choreography exposes the performers’ desire to communicate with the viewer and others on stage and Luca Silvestrini of Protein, who uses social commentary and humour to translate familiar life stories into surprising works of dance theatre. For the third piece, Stella Uppal Subbiah, Co-Artistic Director of Sankalpam, has collaborated with theatre director Phillip Zarrilli on an encounter with the psycho-physical process of Abhinaya (internal acting).
…sheer brilliance…their discipline is awesome. The Stage

Commissioned by The Brindley, supported by Laban and greenroom, and funded by Arts Council England.

FREE Dance Workshop from Sankalpam
Monday 1 November, 7pm-9pm, at greenroom
greenroom is offering a dance workshop by Sankalpam to Greater Manchester residents. Suitable for already existing dance groups or individuals.
The workshop is FREE of charge providing each participant purchases a ticket for Sankalpam’s performance of Corpo-realities on Friday 5 November (8pm) at greenroom. Group discounts and student concessions are available, as well as our special discounted advanced ticket.
Participants in the workshop will get an introduction to both contemporary and Bharata Natyam techniques. They will learn company repertoire and use those ideas and influences of different dance and choreographic styles, to devise their own work through creative tasks.
No previous experience is necessary; each workshop will be bespoke and pitched at the appropriate level, taking on board the needs of each group. All participants are advised to come with a lot of enthusiasm, to have fun and to make the most of each session!
Most suitable for participants aged 16 and over. The maximum number of places for the workshop is 20, but this can be made up of more than one group and individuals.
