AUSTRALIA'S BIGGEST GREEK DANCE SCHOOL,
THE MANASIS SCHOOL OF GREEK DANCE AND CULTURE,
PRESENTS THE GREEK SOCIAL EVENT OF THE YEAR
ANNUAL DINNER DANCE, 2017!!!
________________________________
Over the past 3 decades the MANASIS School of Greek Dance and Culture, has set unmatched, unrivalled standards in execution, choreography and discipline. One of the school's fundamental beliefs is that whenever dance is presented to an audience, whether it be at a festival or on a large scale production, the execution and presentation itself, must differ from the customary, traditional stereotype. As the school constantly strives to find new methods of execution, the belief is that all culture should evolve and move with the times, but remain firmly rooted in its past.
...we must understand where we come from, in order to know where we want to go...
For many years, our school has staged Annual Dinner Dances, exhibiting dances, music and costumes from the various regions of Greece.
________________________________
The “Annual Dinner Dance, 2017",
was the latest project, in a long line of cultural concerts, presented and hosted by the MANASIS School of Greek Dance and Culture. The intentions behind staging this concert were nothing other than celebrating cultural diversity in Australia- the cradle of multiculturalism.
MUSIC:
All night long our event DJ Chris will keep everyone on their toes, with the best mix of traditional and modern Greek “glendi” style music! In conjunction with all this, the MANASIS Band, and other guest musicians, will present the “best-of-the-best” traditional style folk music; Macedonian and Thracian with live Gaida (bagpipes); Pontian with live Lyra, Touloum and Daoulia; Epirotic, Tsamika, Kalamatiana and all Dimotika with live Klarina; Rembetika pre-event floorshow in the foyer; Tsiftetelli belly dancing with live Zournades and Daoulia; Zembekika with live Bouzoukia!
…WE’VE COVERED EVERYTHING!!!
DANCING:
Throughout the evening our school will showcase over 400 performers, from students as young as 3 years of age through to the famed Senior Dance Group, presenting dances from all regions of Greece, in traditional costumes. New routines from our mainstream dance classes will also be presented, from regions such as Pontos, Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, Thessaly, Central Greece, Peloponnese, Crete, Cyprus and the Greek Islands!
JUST FOR FUN:
Upon entry to the foyer, guests will be entertained by live music being performed by some of our young and aspiring musicians. Furthermore, with the generous donations of our supporters and sponsors, our school’s raffle draw will give away over $4,000 worth of prizes on the night! As if that’s not enough, a MANASIS themed Candy-Bar will distribute 1000’s of lollies and sweets to all our guests!!!
To top it all off, a massive Audio/Visual system complete with lasers, automated coloured lighting, smoke machines and a huge LED projection system, will ensure the perfect club style atmosphere for and evening of non-stop entertainment!!!
