Small Pieces, A Gift – Australia’s Remnant Dance in Vietnam

From Remnant Dance:

Dance is powerful form of art and communication that can link people and cultures in the most unexpected ways. This month, the Perth-based performing arts collective,  Remnant Dance, brings their original contemporary dance works and films from the Australian outback to Hanoi.

Lucinda Coleman, Remnant Dance founder and choreographer, says she is excited about bringing Australian contemporary dancers to Hanoi, where there is a long history and appreciation of dance.

“The creative process transcends cultural and linguistic differences and allows for human connectivity through one of the most powerful of human faculties: the imagination,” says Coleman.

Remnant Dance performs at the Vietnam Youth Theatre on Saturday, 23.06. They will also host a cultural exchange dance workshop with the VYT dancers on 28.06.

“We are looking forward to experiencing the passion the Vietnamese have for their own dance and cultural heritage – and sharing our own,” Coleman says.

Remnant Dance is visiting Hanoi in preparation for their 2014 Asia Tour. For more information please visit www.remnantdance.com.au
