India Jazz Suites

India Jazz Suites

"Alone, they're captivating. Together, they're magic." 


- Allan Ulrich, Voice of Dance

INDIA JAZZ SUITES (also called Fastest Feet in Rhythm), featuring Pandit Chitresh Das and Jason Samuels Smith, is an explosive collaboration between one of India’s foremost Kathak masters and one of the world’s fastest, Emmy-award winning tap dancers. The result is high entertainment which crosses all boundaries of age, race and culture — a blast of incredible speed and power, grace and beauty, epic storytelling and the pure joy of dance. 

After premiering in San Francisco in 2005, INDIA JAZZ 
SUITES has received extensive critical acclaim and has 
toured around the U.S. and India. It was chosen as
the #1 Dance Performance of 2005 by the San Francisco 
Chronicle and won the prestigous Isadora Duncan Dance 
Award (Izzie) for Best Ensemble Performance of the year.
