SHOBANA JEYASINGH DANCE.
"Clorinda Agonistes"
Ahead of their performance at the Playhouse, Shobana, dancers, and artists discuss and demonstrate the creative process for this exciting new work.
The piece is inspired by the heroine of Claudio Monteverdi’s celebrated work, Il Combattimento, based on the proud and fiery Muslim warrior Clorinda who defiantly refuses to reveal her name.
