Classical Tamil Dance, Bharatanatyam was traditionally performed at the temples. For the past seventy years or so, this has been performed in theatres on stage as well. Always to a large gathering in the audience. Covid-19 has made some impositions on such performances. For the first time in Australia, a dance program will be staged in an empty theatre. The audience will be watching at the comfort of their own homes.
