Lantern Dance. Performed by the Friendship Dance Group as part of the 2018 Chinese New Year Celebrations in Liverpool China Town.
The Traditional Chinese Lantern Dance has been a part of China’s heritage for over two thousand years. Considered an ancient form of folk dance, it is used to retell the stories and traditions of Chinese culture. It also serves as a form of entertainment with lanterns used as props, complimenting brightly coloured costumes in an eye-catching spectacle of movement.
