Performing Indian classical dance is already challenging. Mastering choreography, infusing every movement with grace, strength and elegance, paying homage to stories and characters can be daunting enough ... now imagine doing all that, but in a wheelchair.
It may sound difficult, but Miracle On Wheels, the world’s first classical wheelchair dance theatre production company, has been doing it for almost a decade. This Bangalore, India-based company has danced all over the world, and it will be performing in KL, Johor Baru and Shah Alam this month in a series of shows organised by the MySkills Foundation.
