A performance space no less than 20'X18' or on a stage. A private room (which can be any office/classroom) for the performers to change and leave their belongings there. This room needs to be very close to the performing area to allow performers to quickly change costumes in between programs. A microphone for the MC (and a low-stand microphone and a chair if classical instrument is part of the performance). If someone at the school is available to be our MC to introduce our performance, written scripts will be provided by us in advance. A CD player sound system and someone from the school to handle CD music during the performance.
This program may support virtual performance, if interested. Zoom or other available technologies can be used for the virtual performance and audience participation. |

Available programs for our performance include Chinese ethnic dances, live classical instrumental music, Chinese opera / songs, martial arts, storytelling, ethnic fashion show, and audience participation in learning and performing a Chinese dance. Programs can be designed along with a teacher"s objective as an extension to learning in a subject area, Chinese festival celebrations, or simply a celebration of diversity with the global language of dance. Colorful and culturally rich costumes and the related historical, geographical, and cultural background will be presented along with the selected ethnic dances and cultural performance. As an audience demo at the end of the performance, students will listen and follow instructions to learn and perform the dance steps, patterns, and movements according to music and rhythm. Students will have the opportunity to learn, experience and demonstrate a Chinese ethnic dance. |

If the teacher has specific learning objectives to be aligned with our performance, we will work closely with the teacher to plan and select performance programs. For example, if the teacher has Chinese New Year and Traditions in his/her lesson plan, we will incorporate a Chinese New Year song in our performance beside other dances and cultural programs.
