Bayanihan Philippine National Dance Company - Saturday, Nov 27



Bayanihan Philippine National Dance Company
Saturday, Nov 27 8:00p
at Florida Theatre, Jacksonville, FL

Bayanihan, the national Dance Company, looks back at its triumphs as it moves onward with each new presentation. From Folkdance translated into the modern stage, Bayanihan carefully advances into Folklore, and beyond, with Filipino History and national identity as its guide. After all Bayanihan literally means patriotism or love of country, its root word being bayani (hero), - a kind of hero that renders personal service to his community which during Spanish times was known as polo and, or, falla. In this regard, we dare say that each one of those involved in Bayanihan are literally national heroes and artist who reiterate through dance, music, percussion, dress and action what is Filipino.

Price: $35, $25
Phone: (904) 355-2787
