Rooh: Within Her
Always double check opening hours with the venue before making a special visit.
Head to Lowry for Rooh: Within Her, a compelling solo dance show by the renowned choreographer and performer Urja Desai Thakore.
In this new production by the ever-brilliant Pagrav Dance Company, Urja Desai Thakore explores inspirational figures and quiet, everyday, heroism across two millennia. Among the narratives, she explores the turmoil of a mother searching for her son in a time of war, a celebrated figure in ancient Tamil literature, and the renowned Gujarati author, Chaaran Kanya, who wrote about the folk heroine Heerbai: the teenage cowherdess.
Most intelligently, Urja Desai Thakore connects her audience to the experiences of these characters, celebrating how all these seemingly minor narratives influence our current and future selves.
