Throughout September
This year, brought to you by UKCPA, ‘East Meets West’ -- a grand dance show that’s truly one of a kind, a fusion of Chinese and Western culture. The entire performance consists of three chapters: The Beauty of Dynasty – Chinese ethnic and folk dances; The Beauty of Tradition – classical Chinese dance; The Beauty of Integration – Contemporary & other dances. Cast members include our top-rated teachers and wonderful students from all age groups. International dance lovers from Argentina, France and other countries also presented their own Chinese dance performances in the show.
One of the things you would find magnificent is how the show was cleverly filmed and how western architecture, street views and historical sites were carefully selected as the Chinese dance background to create vision effect. It beautifully proved to the world that we can further promote cultural exchanges between China and Britain and truly realize that art knows no borders.
