Chinta – A Dance Experiments Festival
December 11th, 12th & 13th, 2026
Concept and Curation by Shruthe Raammohan
Chinta – A Dance Experiments Festival is a space for artistic exploration, critical dialogue, and exchange within the evolving landscape of dance. Bringing together dancers, choreographers, practitioners, and thinkers, the festival invites audiences to engage with diverse perspectives and possibilities within the art form.
Across three days, Chinta presents a programme of performances, forum discussions, and choreography intensives. While the performances offer encounters with varied artistic expressions and practices, the forums open up conversations around pertinent concerns in the performing arts, including mental health, safer artistic spaces, marketing, and audience engagement. The choreography intensives offer opportunities to engage more deeply with the processes of creation, composition, and dramaturgy.
At a time when the performing arts are continually negotiating questions of relevance, visibility, and sustainability, Chinta hopes to create a space where artists can share ideas, question existing practices, and imagine new possibilities for the future of dance.
Chinta is an invitation to think, question, create, and experience dance beyond the familiar.
