Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts
2900 Campus Road & Hillel Place, Brooklyn, NY 11210
Recipient of China's prestigious Golden Lotus Award, choreographer Nai-Ni Chen and her company will once again take Brooklyn Center's audiences on a visually delightful, culturally rich tour of the 3,000-year-old Chinese civilization. This year's celebration honors The Year of the Sheep -- a year of peace, love, and woolly gentleness according to the Chinese calendar. 
 
The repertoire for the performance will include "Double Lions Welcoming Spring," a version of the popular Lion Dance; "Gu Ze Yung Ge," a dance from the Han people in Northeast China that incorporates fans, handkerchiefs, and drums in a celebration of the harvest; the rhythmic "Hubei Coin Stick Dance," originally done by street performers in the Hubei province; and the famous "Dragon Dance," symbolizing imperial power and nature's grace. The Company will also perform an excerpt from Peach Flower Landscape, a dance drama portraying a peaceful agricultural community living in perfect harmony with the land, commissioned in 1995 by the Lincoln Center Institute.
