Scotiabank Dance Centre, 677 Davie, VancouverThe elegance and precision of Thai dance opens a new season of The Dance Centre’s popular Discover Dance! series, with a performance by the Thai Dance Company. Thai dance is famed for its beauty but there is also a strong sacred element between the performers and their spiritual mentors. Artistic Director Megara Solloway teams up with renowned Ottawa-based Thai classical dancer and choreographer Kai Whitcomb to present an exquisitely detailed selection of ceremonial dances as an homage to the divine and a blessing to auspicious occasions. The performance will be followed by a question-and-answer session for the audience.
