Ten shows you won't want to miss
at this year's festival!
Donald's picks-
1. Classical dance from South India and Indonesia:
Dance is a strong component of the Rogue, and fans have many groups from which to choose. The Way of Dance will present the temple dance Bharata Natyam from South India as well as dreamlike and meditative court dances from Java and Bali.
