Festive Road

Dancing Maharajas @Cohesion Plus Kent

The Dancing Maharajas is a promenade and processional performance with a life-size pedal-powered elephant (Festive Road’s Harminder), dancing Maharajas and musicians, inspired by the culture of Northern India. This exciting partnership project is co-produced by Festive Road and BAME led Cohesion Plus, an Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation, from North Kent. The project fuses together two distinct genres to create an exciting, artistically rich and engaging street performance, which can be presented in a variety of outdoor setting. The show celebrates cultural diversity, bringing something different to all sectors of the community, and encouraging public engagement in arts and culture.
