Xiamen gives Tibet a healthier outlook
Zogang art troupe, the members of which regularly lead the dance in the county's central square, has participated in these exchanges multiple times.
In April, performers from the troupe staged an original play in Xiamen, as well as exchanged ideas and performed with Xiamen's folk dance and music ensembles.
In July, two teachers from the Xiamen Art School flew to Zogang and offered a week's training in dancing and hosting to members of the Zogang art troupe.
Tang Kele, a dancing instructor, says that the troupe consists of nearly 30 performers, most of whom never received professional training.
Their participation in the troupe is driven by their passion for singing or dancing, and most of the art troupe's programs are created spontaneously by the performers according to their own interests.
"Because I specialize in folk and ethnic dance, I actually prepared a folk dance program in advance. But when I arrived, they told me that they started working on a street dance program, and hoped that I could help them complete the choreography," Tang says.
