We are proud to present the UK debut of the stunning stage show BHARATI. Visiting London’s Hammersmith Apollo for one night only on 23rd October 2008, BHARATI is a music and dance spectacle that brings together the multiple aspects that make India such an exuberant and energising experience.
Prepare to be overwhelmed by graceful, beautiful and energetic dancers who are offering the sensuality and sincerity of Indian traditional and classical choreography, combined with the tempo and force of contemporary dance movements. The musical score of the show features both original music, composed and arranged just for BHARATI and some of the most popular songs from hit Bollywood films. Through live performances by an orchestra of violinists and percussionists and a choir and talented solo vocalists, the sound of India is brought to life.
Using ancient Sanskrit theatrical and narrative traditions wherein the narrator holds the threads of the tale, you will be guided through a simple but contemporary tale of love and wonder, punctuated by a mix of fourteen songs and dances. Over the space of ninety minutes, be prepared to be guided through a brief but scintillating sampling of India's rich and breathtaking diversity.
"Bharati is a complete spectacle that elevates pure enthusiasm. The audiences frantically tap their hands applauding the graceful feminine choreographies, the energetic male dancers and the martial artists. Spectators’ hands and feet go along with the tremendous rhythms of drums, violins and sitar, all of which are performed by the excellent instrumentalists." Le Parisien, France.
"Bharati is hypnotising with its colours, sounds and dances that unify the treasures, vitality and joy of a singular country in an unforgettable Stageshow." Musik & BĂĽhne, Vienna.
"Powerfully virtuous, incredibly precise and amazingly fast paced dancing show… breathtaking swordfights and ceremonial rites…old and new mix themselves together to a kaleidoscope of swirling pictures and puzzling tableau" Die Welt, Hamburg.
Featuring amazing sights and sounds, on Thursday 23rd October at Hammersmith Apollo, London, BHARATI will bring alive the subcontinent's power and passion and gets you on your feet!
BHARATI tickets go on sale from 18 July 2008. Check back for more details!
The Unforgettable Tour will roll out the Green Carpet to receive the first family of Bollywood, as the global ambassador of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan, joins Abhishek and Aishwarya across eight global cities in characteristic glamour and grandiose.
As well as marking a significant first in the global arena of Bollywood entertainment, being the first ever show of its kind to be hosted by London’s O2 Arena, The Unforgettable Tour will also herald a significant milestone in drawing attention to the global issue of climate change.
Using Indian cinema as the vehicle to harness awareness of the large scale gravity of this phenomenon, Bollywood’s top billing names will rally public awareness and spread the message to ‘go green’ in the first Bollywood stage spectacle to have an ‘econscience’.
Bachchan Bollywood royalty will be joined in the arena by a host of other top names from the industry, including sizzling starlet Preity Zinta, comedy kingpin Riteish Deshmukh, and a very special appearance exclusively for The Unforgettable Tour’s London performance, by none other than the star who won the heart of the nation – Shilpa Shetty.
Flushed from the incredible successes of 2007, a year that saw them making jubilant appearances at Glastonbury, Benicassim and Bestival, as well as completing a critically acclaimed sell out UK arena tour, Madness have announced an exclusive one-off show returning to London’s 02 Arena on 19th December 2008 for a traditionally triumphant Christmas knees-up.
Continuing a new era of divine Madness, Suggs, Chas, Barso, El Thommo, Chrissy Boy, Bedders and Woody left no one in any doubt that they are still one of the best live acts in the world with their high energy sets during last year’s country-wide tour and with an album of new material almost completed, the band is looking set for another bumper year in 2008, which they will be capping with this special festive outing for the faithful.
