Elegant and captivating, the Lily Cai Chinese Dance Company melds ancient Chinese forms with modern dance in an artistic and inventive marriage of styles.
Artistic Director and Choreographer Lily Cai, a former principal dancer with the Shanghai Opera House, draws on her cultural heritage to create visually-stunning dance, performed by her all-female professional troupe. The performance moves from the ancient to the modern, blending the beautiful artistic traditions of China with Lily Cai's unique contemporary choreography.
The performance is one of variety and many moods, including dances inspired by the Chinese dynasties and fan dances, the haunting Candelas dance with lit candles and the Company's signature work - the exhilarating, vibrant, ribbon dance Silk Cascade.
