Description
Come and see our proud and majestic peacock and our prim and pretty princess roam through the crowds, in Mughal Miniatures: The Peacock and the Princess. Watch them compete for attention from each other and the audience – both are elegant and beautiful so who will manage outdo the other?
Mughal Miniatures is a fun and upbeat outdoor performance event for all the family, which celebrates and takes inspiration from the exquisite traditional art of Indian and Persian miniature painting. Our performers evoke scenes of Indian princely courts and lush gardens, and the glory of the Mughal period but with a contemporary twist which overturns expectations and surprises and delights passers-by. With stunning costumes and expressive movement, this interactive dance performance is a visual treat for the whole family.
Dance in the Midlands, co-presented with Fabric.
11.45 am - 1.15pm - St Peter's St
