GDC 7-8-9 Fundraising Drive is Here!

 

We need your help raising $7,000 by 8/9… Thus, 7-8-9!
We all recognize the huge value arts and culture play in our society and how they contribute to the quality of our lives. Since the COVID 19 shutdowns were implemented last spring, we immediately adapted by moving our rehearsals online via Zoom (the very first day after the shutdown). We were dedicated to ensuring that the arts remain part of our lives as well as yours. We conquered the challenges of rehearsing virtually via Zoom and created several brand new works including “Aspire”, “The Golden Time”, and “When the Wind Blows”. We produced ten different streaming video performance films to keep our community connected and reflect upon the tumultuous events over the past year. This past season was our 10th Anniversary Season. To celebrate, we shared the stories of our 10 year journey along with full length stage video productions of our several of original works on our “10th Anniversary Season Virtual Performance and Discussion”.
We have been committed to being ready with high quality works of dance when things return back to ‘normal’. Due to the shutdowns over the past year, all of our in person performances were canceled as performance venues remained closed. This has impacted our funding… At GDC, we pour our heart and soul into every production. We create to impact, inspire, and brighten lives.  We have a tremendous passion and love for what we do and, as venues open back up this fall, we are excited to announce that we will be one of the very first to perform in the stunning, brand new Capital One Hall in Tysons Corner with our full evening production of all new works on October 16, 2021. We humbly ask for your help in raising the funds needed for this exciting and ambitious production with your tax-deductible contribution.
Please give whatever you can … Every dollar donated will bring us closer to our goal.
TOGETHER, we can keep the curtain up!

Dong Xi with Special Guest Shu-Chen Cuff

Dong Xi, the winner of Best World Music Artist /Group of WAMMIE (2020) and nominator of Outstanding Sound Design of Helen Hayes Award (2020), is honored to bring the audience to a new sound world with their bi-lingual music. The name Dong Xi can be translated in “East and West”. It is a collaboration between world percussionist Tom Teasley and Yang Qin (Chinese dulcimer) virtuoso Chao Tian. Their sound is a merging of world rhythms with the elegance of Chinese folk and classical music. Tom Teasley combines global percussions from Africa, India, Middle-East, Brazil, and Cuba with American jazz. Chao Tian performs with techniques that combines her traditional Chinese music background with reminiscent of the Persian Santoor, American dulcimer, and even slide guitar. Their music is completely improvised, thus creating a dialog between east and west using music to express what words cannot express. They are joined by Shu-Chen Cuff, Founder of the critically acclaimed Gin Dance Company. Each of GDC’s works reflects Shu-Chen’s rich Asian Dance heritage and Eastern philosophy blended with Western fluidity of movement and culture that touch the soul through visuals arts and movement.Outdoors in Cherry Hill Park behind the Falls Church Community Center.

“Breaking News”

Despite all the performance cancellations, we thought we would share some great photography from “Breaking News” taken by our talented photographer Ruth Judson. This work was choreographed by GDC Artistic Director Shu-Chen Cuff and premiered last February at the Atlas Intersections Festival at the Atlas Performing Arts Center. Shu-Chen unveiled the shocking ‘News’ twists and turns through dance.
