Natya Dance Theater
Natya Dance Theater is an Indian dance company headquartered in Chicago. They are a well established group having won awards at various dance festivals throughout the USA and India. They were the only dance company that was selected to perform an original work at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics.
The group's name includes the word 'theater' because their dances tell stories from India's long history through their movements, expressions and hand gestures.
