Tonight, the songbird takes flight 🕊️

Aakash Odedra’s acclaimed Songs of the Bulbul returns to Sadler’s Wells East, bringing an ancient Sufi tale to life in a solo of extraordinary beauty and feeling.

Kathak, contemporary dance and live music meet in a story of longing, devotion and the fierce pull of freedom.

A work that does not simply unfold before you, but draws you into its spell.

A-LIVE put Aakash Odedra (@aakashodedra.global @aakashodedracompany) on the hot seat about all things dance, life and beyond!💺

After 19 five-star reviews and worldwide performances, his solo show Songs of the Bulbul is back in the UK this July, and we highly recommend you catch one of these performances.

Inspired by the Persian myth of the bulbul, this mesmerising work is a journey through flight, longing and transformation, brought to life through dance, music and powerful visual storytelling. With wonderful original music by Rushil Ranjan (@rushilmusic) and Abi Sampa (@abisampa).
