Dance Dhamaka is Williams College’s Indian Dance troupe and is over 30 people strong. Over the last four years the group has performed in the opening ceremonies of the ’62 Center for Theater and Dance, Eid and Diwali celebrations, fundraisers for Tsunami and Hurricane Relief, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. day festivities. Beginning in 2006, the group presented annual full length shows modeled on traditional Bollywood movies. This year’s show, Legally Brown, promises to follow in the footsteps of Bombay in My Soul and Brokeback Bollywood to surprise audiences with spectacular choreography, vibrant costumes, and lots of melodrama.
