“Rotunda Dance Series” San Francisco City Hall Performance Festival
The “Rotunda Dance Series” is a set of free monthly dance performances in San Francisco City Hall’s extraordinary rotunda, Dancers’ Group and World Arts West have once again partnered to bring audiences lunchtime glimpses into movement and musical traditions from around the world.
Set amidst the grandeur of San Francisco City Hall’s Rotunda, these free lunchtime presentations bring dance forms from across the globe to this magnificent venue. All performances are free and start at noon.
The Lily Cai Chinese Dance Company will present two works: Postcards and Beyond, a world premiere created especially for City Hall’s rotunda, transforming traditional Chinese dance into contemporary movement; and Silk Cascade, a masterful piece inspired by the painting style of Jackson Pollock and the strokes of Chinese calligraphy with cascading colors of silk ribbons. Silk Cascade is a vibrant interpretation of the Chinese ribbon dance, with flurries of silk in a whirl of color and movement.
This is the sixth season of free monthly performances of dance and music forms from around the world in San Francisco City Hall’s extraordinary rotunda, presented by Dancers’ Group and World Arts West, in partnership with Grants for the Arts and San Francisco City Hall.
