Live Audio Description

Mughal Miniatures is a fun and upbeat outdoor performance event for all the family, which celebrates and takes inspiration from the exquisite traditional art of Indian and Persian miniature painting.

Performers in sumptuous costumes create vibrant and colourful mini worlds of dance, music and puppetry.

We invite you to step back in time and join us at the royal court, dance in the monsoon rains, tame a cheeky peacock and hunt in the forest. But everything is not as it seems; our well-behaved characters have grown tired of their restrictive frames and with your help, they can break free!

Five dancers in traditional Chinese costumes dance in front of an audience in a street performance.
