Gypsy Kathaa is a Flamenco and Kathak fusion dance performance exploring the similarities in music, movement, and moods between the two artforms. Kathak is one of the eight classical dances of India originating in North India in the 3rd century and performed in temples as way of narrating mythological stories (Kathaa meaning story). Flamenco origins are thought to be in the Roma migration from Northwest India to Spain between 9th and 14th centuries and later performed by Gitanos (Gypsies) in Andalucía, Spain as a way of expressing their life’s struggles. 

Gypsy Kathaa is a truly unique experience combining Flamenco and Kathak, two high energy, colorful, melodious art forms on one stage. 

The Carolina Theatre’s Family Saturday Series is an educational program that provides high quality, affordable arts experiences and introduces young audiences to the excitement of live performances, music, storytelling, and magic.
