                     The dance performance I have to see on Sunday it has surprised me a lot. I have seen many good dancers and they have shown me that they love to dance so much. The most part I like is the first performance and second performance it has shown us the culture of different people. In the first performance, Their hands and their feet are flying like birds The girl’s solo is very beautiful. She seems to integrate herself into one of their own worlds. This dance requires a lot of cooperation with partners. Hands holding each other to support them to dance this dance.I think their screen is a good idea It has the same action as the dancer. It made me feel very magical. In the end, they got back to the original action. Everyone raised a hand and gathered together for a moment. Looking at us, I think it is very shocking. I feel that they have integrated themselves into nature like birds in nature. The second performance shows At the beginning, they put on the national anthem, saying that this is wrong, they also put many people’s speeches. They dance slowly and come out. Their feet are taping and a boy in red clothes came out. At first, he didn’t seem to be jumping in this group. The slow motion is very similar to the Chinese Tai Chi. When he jumps to the back, he seems to be with this group. He danced like just like the girl group. He seemed to have magic. He touched the girls and their hands danced. When the boys left, the girls began to line up in a team and danced to the end. They started to clap their hands. I think if their dance has more clapping it will make me feel even more shocked. In this dance, I have to see the boy as immigrants who come to a different country with the different culture he try to fit into the culture that does not belong to him. Overall the dance performance has shown a lot of culture to me and it also represents a different culture.
