SNAKE charmers, dancing on blades and mystical passionate music are just some of the highlights of a spectacular show all the way from India.
The Dhoad Gypsies of Rajasthan bring their music and spiritual tradition to the Ashcroft Arts Centre in Fareham on Thursday, June 15.
The legacy of the Dhoad gypsies hail from the magnificent Thar desert in the north-western Indian province of Rajasthan. Known as the original land of gypsies, it's said they wandered from town to town entertaining princes and their courtiers.
This one-night-only performance promises something a little different. Not only does Dhoad bring together several talented musicians, dancers, snake charmers and poets it also boasts of Munshi, the masterful fakir, whose unbelievable feats include dancing on the blades of swords, a bed of nails and broken glass.
Audiences will definitely have a night to remember as well getting an authentic and magical experience. The music of Dhoad is a music of ecstasy, punctuated by the gentle gestures of breathtaking tunes.
You'll want to sit back and let the hypnotic rhythm of this exceptional group of musicians entertain and enchant you as they take you through a whirlwind of glittering, shimmering colours and dance.
