The Neemrana Music Foundation presents a Kathak Festival, celebrating 50 years of Kathak Kendra with a group performance by the dancers of Repertory Company of Kathak Kendra at Neemrana Fort - Palace.

The Kathak Kendra Repertory is responsible for the development of new choreographic work that pushes forward the language of Kathak, enabling it to take on thematic challenges appropriate to our changing times. Earlier known as the Production Unit of Kathak Kendra, it was headed by maestro Pandit Birju Maharaj for many years. The Production Unit created numerous full-length dance-dramas, some shorter group compositions as well as solo and duet numbers that have been presented widely in India and other countries.

In 2007, the Production Unit was renamed The Repertory Wing of the Kendra. Presently headed by Jai Kishan Maharaj, the Repertory Wing includes the following dancers:
1. Shri Deepak Aurora
2. Ms. Vidyagauri Adkar
3. Ms. Sandhya Pachonia
4. Ms. Namrata Mali
5. Ms. Pankhuri Srivastava
6. Ms. Nilakshi Khandkar
