imperial college lion dance society

Archive for April, 2008

On the 9th and 10th of February 2008, the troupe was invited to perform at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Waking up early, we shipped the costumes and instruments to the museum by 12pm. The performance started with the lions mingling with the crowd at the Cromwell Road entrance. Plans went well when a large crowd started gathering to witness this once in a year traditional performance. The lions then paraded into the museum (taking in the crowd too). We were greeted with the cheers of the public and the magnificent glass chandelier. The crew was led the crowd into the main hall of the museum where the lions showcased some stunts in their routine. The performance ended with a workshop in the courtyard of the museum.
