THE OREGONIAN

REVIEWS

Disney World, EPCOT Center

“Quality family entertainment.”

Lewis Segal, Los Angeles Times

“The most exquisite Ranganiketan export, however, was easily ‘Vasanta Rasa’, a classic ritual depicting the God Krishna interacting playfully with His milkmaids. Accompanied by flute, drum, tiny cymbals and a woman’s singing, it definitely reflected the humor, refinement and spirituality of the Manipuri people. In their layered short-sleeved tops over stiff wide, gleaming, bell-like skirts, these milkmaids looked like nothing else on Earth, and, showering Krishna with flower-petals, they created a memorably joyous dance spectacle.”

Midi Libre, France

“A magical night! The public was amazed. An escape to the faraway lands of India.”

Beate Gordon, The Asia Society

“The Ranganiketan Manipuri Cultural Arts Troupe is a charming ensemble of young Manipuri men and women presenting their ancient arts with enthusiasm and vigor. The drumming is highly virtuosic and exciting, the dancing, in lovely costumes, graceful and elegant.”

Jim Farley, Marin Center

“The brilliant costumes, dance, stunning martial arts, dazzling weapons displays and hypnotic drum performances gave our Marin County audience and insider’s appreciation of the arts and culture of Manipur. It was a once-in-a-life-time experience for Americans to see the traditions of Manipur unfold throughout the performance and I am certain the audience will remember the evening for a long time to come.”

Der Landbote, Switzerland

“Ranganiketan opened up another world.”

Courtney Bullock, City Celebration, San Francisco

“Words cannot describe the magic and beauty expressed in your cultural troupe’s performance in our summer festival. Countless audience members came up to me after the show and expressed their awe, amazement and delight at the fine performance your artists displayed.”

Paul Dardier, Mayor of Mirepoix, France

“This performance, made in cooperation with the city’s cultural services, gave us the opportunity to appreciate the gentleness, the seriousness and the very great talent of the Manipuri people. This show was outstanding in all respects.”

Ashfaque Swapan, India West

“Ranganiketan impressed both American viewers and long time dance aficionados with their flair and expertise.”

Ed Conroy, San Antonio Express News

“Serenity and a special grace shone through the dancers, singers and acrobatic drummers.”

Provencal, France

“These artists look to find in their innermost selves what will make their performance a success for the soul.”
