Hindi & Punjabi Fusion dance performed by 10-13 year old members of Bollywood Dream Dancers

Prince George, BC – It was a whirlwind of colour at the Prince George Playhouse this afternoon, as the Bollywood Dream Dancers performed as part of ongoing Vaisakhi celebrations.

A packed house was treated to traditional Hindi dances, as well as Punjabi Bhangra performed by dancers as young as five-years-old.  The Hindi & Punjabi Fusion dancers (shown in photo above) were performing a piece choreographed by 13-year-old Sonia Kandola.
