Information

Acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker Hetain Patel uses movement and audio interviews to explore generational change across his Brit-Gujarati family.  Following the passing of a number of first-generation immigrants in his family, British born Hetain reflects on what is lost and what is transformed, revisiting rituals rooted in his family’s working-class Brit-Gujarati experience.

Performed in English and Gujarati – Ticket holders get access to a free post-show talk.

Part of THIS IS DANCE, an international dance season in Birmingham, presented in partnership with Birmingham Hippodrome, Birmingham Rep, FABRIC, Fierce Festival, Midlands Arts Centre and Sampad Arts – find out more.
