GEORGE NEWS - Dancers express their feelings and thoughts through movement. What better way to celebrate our country's 30 years of democracy than with dance, choreography and music?
This Friday, 29 November, professional dancers of the SboNdaba Dance Company in Cape Town will take to the stage at George High, accompanied by local dance students of the school and Townsend School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance for a single performance of Diverse People Unite (,!ke e: /xarra//ke,).
GALLERY - Diverse People Unite: A celebration of culture and democracy through dance
The show's title is also South Africa's motto and the central theme of this production, which celebrates the country's 30 years of democracy.
"We reflect on how far we have come and encourage South Africans to see the incredible depth of our diversity, and the power we can give to a vision, if we harness our individual strengths and work together with a common purpose," said the artistic director, Sbonakaliso Ndaba. "It will also shine a light on what is still to be done to ensure the vision remains solid and the values, as represented on the shield, continue to be upheld."
George dance teachers Bradley Zeelie and William Constable made sure everything is going smoothly this side in George for the anticipated production. Zeelie teaches at George High and Townsend School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance, and will be seen on stage too. Constable heads the dance department at George High, and is acting head of the entire arts department at George High.
Dance students received a work session with the cast earlier this week, which gave them a peek into the world of professional dancing.
The show starts at 19:00 at George High in Rosemoor. Tickets cost R100 (adults) and R50 (scholars and pensioners) and are available at WebTickets. Patrons can also purchase tickets at the door before the show, or book with William Constable on 082 360 0149.
