It was the grand finale!
International Day – the last day of Culture Week – was celebrated with a great show. Dances, acrobatic and athletic acts, songs – the festival of cultures in all its diversity. We had dancers from India, Kirgistan, America, China, of course, and other places of the world. Even the little kids of the foreign faculty performed a little dance and won the heart of the audience in an instance.
I loved the skater’s act – which well represents the diversity of our school. The fire acrobat’s performance was quite a hot act, and maybe the most impressive part was the performance of what I’d call the “vase dancer.” Someone was balancing heavy china vases all over his body and we were catching our breaths, always fearing the vases might drop and shatter into thousands of pieces. But he finished his performance without any accident, leaving us quite stunned at his ability.
Of course, being in China, Kong Fu has to be part of every good show, so we got to see young men smashing wooden & metal items, piercing a glass plate with a needle and the likes. What else is there to say? Quite a fancy show!
