Past Programs:
2004:
- Our ambitious project for the Chinese New Year in 2004-"Our Stories" dance theater production-was successfully produced and presented at the Ingram Performing Hall at the Vanderbilt Blair School of Music. We performed to two packed houses and standing ovations. Words like "This rare blending of modern dance with elements of ancient Chinese culture... colorful, expressive, wholly ethnic... elegance, grace... " were used to describe the program by a Nashville Scene dance/theater critic. A picture from the same production was on the cover of the Vanderbilt Blair School's "Quarter Note" magazine in 2004. View photos here.
