Aakash Odedra Company: Little Murmur
Sorry, this event has sold out
Join us for a stunning visual treat for everyone aged 7+, based on the true story of one child’s struggle with letters and words.
Little Murmur is about facing challenges and overcoming the odds. It's an honest and funny tale about the trials and tribulations of seeing things differently.
Diagnosed with dyslexia at a young age, Aakash of the Aakash Odedra Company found school very challenging. Defined by his learning difficulties, not his abilities, dance became his mode of expression. Little Murmur explores the warped and exaggerated realities of living in a world you struggle to process by combining visual design and technology with dance and humour.
In Little Murmur, visual technologies are used during the show to enhance the movement, footwork and gestures of the performer. This allows the audience to see through a window, a place in the imagination where letters can fly away from the reader’s eyes like a flock of birds, a murmuration, a little murmur.
Jump into a world of dance, technology and illustration to see this heartfelt journey take flight. It’s time to be mesmerised.
Age suitability: Age 7+
Running time: 35 minutes
