Akram Khan delivers a fittingly spellbinding farewell in 'Thikra: Night of Remembering'
Akram Khan’s new Thikra: Night of Remembering is a ritual of memory – and a chance to say farewell, given it is the major choreographer’s final show for his own company.
Thikra is a handsome finale, showing off Khan’s gift for spellbinding movement. Since founding his company in 2000, Khan has used it to explore both his classical Indian and contemporary dance backgrounds, building an international profile and collaborating with artists from Anish Kapoor to Sylvie Guillem. In recent years, he has become a go-to choreographer for ballet, with award-winning productions including his Giselle for English National Ballet. (He has also developed family-friendly works – the delightful Chotto Desh is at Sadler’s Wells East this month.) Khan has decided to change how he works, however, ending his company – at least in its current form.
