We went to a Dance Umbrella event last night - Modern Moves at the Barbican.  Have to say that when the interval came, the temptation of being able to drive home outweighed the temptation of watching the third dance.  I love traditional Indian dancing, and know that this was contemporary but assumed there would be elements still used.  There was a tantalising 10 seconds of classical dancing which was danced ironically and dismissed. I'd happily have sat though a couple of hours of that instead of what we got. Low points were two blokes in their undies putting shoes on their heads, and the female dancer spitting into her hand then letting the saliva slowly ooze back into her mouth.  Someone please tell me where  I can see some proper kathak??
