Nava Dance Theater and Rupy C. Tut created Broken Seeds Still Grow, a multi-disciplinary dance and visual art production to explore the continuing impact of the 1947 British-India Partition, one of the most formative events in South Asia’s recent history.Through Bharatanatyam, the Indian classical dance form that expresses South Indian religious and spiritual themes, and mixed visual media, they examine the hyphenated-American immigrant experience, linking it to the displacement of their ancestors during Partition. This intriguing dance project sources poetry, eyewitness accounts and current events to understand the current political climate while reflecting on what it means to belong in the United States.
