Z Space and The Chhandam School of Kathak along with Leela Dance, presents CONTINUUM, a four-day festival of North Indian classical music and dance.
CONTINUUM represents a showcase of world art at its pinnacle, immersing audiences into India's rich, soulful classical music and captivating kathak dance. Featuring a lineup of artists that has never been brought together before, Continuum shines a spotlight on a new generation of young masters who bring a fresh lens, contemporary voice, and new dimension to these ancient art forms.
