Ragamala Dance Company's 30th season continues with Choreographic Associate Ashwini Ramaswamy's Let the Crows Come, presented on March 23, 2023 at 7:30pm at the Te Ata Memorial Auditorium as part of the Davis-Waldorf Performing Arts Series at the University of Science & Arts of Oklahoma, 1727 W Alabama Ave. Chickasha, OK. Tickets are $20 and are available at https://usao.edu/arts-and-culture/dwpas/22-23-ashwini-ramaswamy.html.
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.
