Lion & Dragon Dance

Caught my first FULL LENGTH Lion & Dragon Dance today in a MALL !! The half hour show was great. It started with 6 drummers doing a number, I thought they were excellent. It was followed by 2 Lions doing their stuff, not as graceful if you ask me. The highlight followed where another set of performers took over one of the Lions and did the jumping on chairs and stuff routine, you could tell these were veterans the movement was so much better and they gave the Lion ‘life’. This was followed by another set of Lion performers doing the orange/cabbage routine. It ended with almost everyone in the trope participating in the Dragon Dance, it takes 10 people just to make it run around and that excluded the drummers and cymbal players. All in an enjoyable Lunch Performance.
