Roger Sinha
Dancer, choreographer
Roger Sinha was born in England of an Armenian mother and an Indian father. In his work he explores themes of cultural dissonance and tensions created by the collision of East and West. Exploring his origins he uses tradition for a contemporary expression of his reality. Sinha's choreographic vocabulaire combines the subtleties of Indian dance, with the full body movements of modern, ballet and the martial arts.
