Recast(e)ing South/Asian Dance and Performance

This year’s colloquium recasts South/Asian dance and performance through the lenses of caste, race, gender, sexuality, nation, migration, diaspora, and coloniality. Invited presenters include scholars, artists, scholar-artists, and artist-scholars whose work engages with South/Asian cultural production in India, Australia, the US, China, and the Caribbean. The colloquium will culminate in the annual Christena Lindborg Schlundt Lecture in Critical Dance Studies and Dance Making. 

Coordinated by Dr. Anusha Kedhar, Associate Professor of Critical Dance Studies
