Over the last 23 years, Akram Khan Company has established itself as one of the foremost innovative dance companies in the world. Embracing an artistic vision that both respects and challenges Indian kathak form and contemporary dance.
In 2019, Akram returned to the curry houses of his youth to create a dance piece that told the story of the immigrant experience in Britain; Khan’s own take on the famous ‘The Last Supper’ painting by da Vinci, where he explores the nuances of eating out and the different roles people play in the experience
Co-published with Actes Sud, with the support of COLAS, The Fury of Beautiful Things was produced to mark the Company’s 20th anniversary celebration in October 2020. It invites you to walk through the experiences of our Company’s history through a remarkable collection of photos.
