Thanks to the Snyder Cultural Understanding Fund through the Peru State College Foundation, Dr. Sheri Grotrian-Ryan was fortunate to sponsor a group of students (along with Dr. Kyle Ryan) at the Taj Express show on March 26, 2017 at the Orpheum Theater in Omaha, NE.

The excerpt from the Orpheum website describes the show as follows: “Taj Express explodes with the sounds of India and Bollywood. Through a fusion of film, dance, and music, this dazzling international sensation takes audiences on a live cinematic journey through modern Indian culture and society. The production is a high energy celebration of new India’s pop music, Bollywood culture, and deep traditions featuring colorful costumes, joyful dance, and thrilling live music.”
