Dancing just got serious!
2024 is set to start with a bang with the UK Premiere of Bhangra Nation – A New Musical!
This pulsating and powerful story about finding your true self is told with verve.
When Mary and Preeti’s American collegiate Bhangra team qualifies for USA Nationals, they set off on opposing quests to dance to their own beat.
Drawing from competitive Bhangra and mixing it with other Indian and Western dance forms, Bhangra Nation – A New Musical is a brash, intoxicating and joyous musical comedy for today.
This exhilarating new musical has been created by an international creative team, brought together by Tony and Grammy Award-winning producers Mara Isaacs (Hadestown), Tom Kirdahy (Hadestown, The Inheritance) and Peggy Koenig.
A new musical that celebrates traditions we inherit and those we create – Bhangra Nation promises to be a seriously great theatrical experience for all.
Jubilant, funny, accessible and entertaining…Well-crafted characters, quirky humour and touching moments…”
