Ragamala Dance Company's 30th season continues with Choreographic Associate Ashwini Ramaswamy's Let the Crows Come, presented on April 7 & 8, 2023 at 7:30pm at BroadStage at Santa Monica College Performing Arts Center, 1310 11th Street, Santa Monica, CA. Tickets start at $40 and are available at broadstage.org/performances/2022-23/dance/letthecrowscome.
Evoking mythography and ancestry, Ashwini Ramaswamy's Let the Crows Come uses the metaphor of crows as messengers for the living and guides for the departed. Let the Crows Come evolved from a simple idea; when a DJ remixes a song, its essence is maintained while its trajectory is changed. To Minneapolis-based dancer/choreographer Ashwini Ramaswamy — a founding company member of the internationally renowned Ragamala Dance Company — this mutation is reminiscent of being a second-generation immigrant - a person that has been culturally remixed to fit into multiple places at once.
