Quays Theatre, The Lowry, The Lowry Sun, 14th November 2010 - Sun, 14th November 2010 From £12.00*Love is in the Air is a fresh take on a classic story, building on themes introduced in Srishti’s 2009 tour My Stamping Ground. From Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and Broadway’s West Side Story to Bollywood's Josh, the tension of forbidden love has caused thrill and heartbreak throughout the ages. Srishti’s new production explores fighting forces that seem impossible to conquer. Continuing the company’s established style of a male-dominated cast, Love is in the Air is an innovative piece combining modern film, aerial work and live music with the traditional form of Bharatanatyam. Featuring choreography by 2006 Place Prize winner Nina Rajarani MBE, and magnetic live music created by composer and vocalist Y Yadavan, Love is in the Air is a collaboration with aerial specialists from Scarabeus. The piece tackles the sensitive issue of gangs in the UK while celebrating the loyalty and solidarity shared by friendship groups.
