Featured in New York, a hugely popular nightclub in San Francisco and on some of the largest stages in California, Dholrhythms Dance Company brings their overwhelmingly joyful dance and music to Marin. Presented by The Kanbar Center for the Performing Arts at the Osher Marin JCC, the troupe, led by Vicki Virk and Suman Raj, highlights ancestral and ethnic roots of the traditional Punjabi dance form while pushing boundaries with contemporary influences such as hip-hop and house. The result is a fresh and exciting experience the audience participates in. Part dance show, part instruction, the evening begins with a beautiful and inspiring performance, followed by a short lesson, which evolves into dance party of audience and performers alike. Dholrhythms Dance Company headlines Non-Stop Bhangra club nights at the Ricksaw Stop in San Francisco and has played at the Stern Grove Festival, Michael Franti's Power to the Peaceful Festival, Yerba Buena Gardens Festival and Harmony Festival.
WHO: All are invited. (Adults 21+, with ID, are invited to purchase beer, wine and cocktails at the no-host bar.) Doors open at 7:30 p.m.
