Directed by Annette Leday of the Annette Leday/ Keli Company, S.Thala, (स्थल) a Sanskrit word meaning: a place, a spot, a room. is a dance and theatre production inspired by Marguerite Duras’ ‘India Song’ – a multimedia composition which fictionalized Asian colonialism.

By revisiting Duras’ fantasised India, the dancers propose a choreographic interpretation of her literary universe. The choreography will evoke situations and characters representative of Duras’ fictional universe, without replicating the complex narratives of her texts.
