Living Legends to perform at NWC

Posted

The Park County Arts Council presents Living Legends performing  their show “Seasons” on Tuesday, Oct. 22 at 7 p.m. at the Nelson Performing Arts Auditorium in Powell. Tickets are $15 each and available online under the ticket tab at parkcountyartscouncil.org.

Brigham Young University's Living Legends celebrates the Latin American, Native American and Polynesian cultures in their show, “Seasons.” The story they tell has ancient roots. It has been told in every age, every land, and in every tongue. It’s the story of today and tomorrow, of how we connect with the Earth, each other and our ancestors.  

Spectacular choreography, colorful costumes, and heart pounding  music bring the story to life. All the members of Living Legends are of Native American, Latin American or Polynesian descent, which lends an extra measure of skill and authenticity to their work, according to the release. Storytellers reflects the cycle of civilizations and weaves together the  legends of the past with the reality of today. Dances include the exciting Polynesian haka to the graceful Mexican Fiesta dance to the Native American hoop dance.  

This performance is made possible from generous grants from the Wyoming Arts Council  through funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and the  Wyoming State Legislature, WESTAF and donations.
