"Asia's leading contemporary dance company" (The Times, London) in Dublin for 1 night only!
As the curtain opens, a stream of rice drizzles onto the head of an Asian monk. Tonnes of golden grains ricochet and rain down to form an ever changing landscape through which some 20 extraordinary Cloud Gate dancers (trained in chi kung, meditation, internal martial arts, modern dance, ballet, and calligraphy) move. Set to soulful Georgian folk songs of the Rustavi Choir, this visually sensational production has enthralled audiences worldwide. A rare delicacy -- not to be missed!
