Journey through the ten incarnations of Vishnu in a spellbinding Bharatanatyam performance at the Edinburgh Fringe.

What if the stories of the gods were not confined to books, but unfolded before your eyes?

When Gods Walked the Earth is a breathtaking solo Bharatanatyam performance inspired by the Dashavatara, the ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu. Through dynamic choreography, expressive storytelling, and the timeless beauty of one of the world’s oldest classical dance traditions, this performance brings to life epic tales of creation, courage, sacrifice, and transformation.

Designed for audiences from every culture and background, this is more than a dance performance—it’s an invitation to experience mythology as living theatre. Whether you’re discovering Bharatanatyam for the first time or are a lifelong admirer of the arts, prepare to be transported into a world where divine legends speak to universal human emotions and timeless truths.
