Text of our Speech at the Project Finale
It is with great gratitude that I address this gathering of parents, friends and Udaipur citizens from the various government and non-government institutions and businesses. You have taken the time to come on very short notice to this rather unique performance of world dances by 101 school kids between the ages of 6 to 8 and 14 to 16.
This event today marks the end of a very brief world dance training program our team sponsored forMahila Mandal Girls Senior Higher Secondary School , St Mary Girls Senior Higher Secondary School and St Paul ’s Senior Higher Secondary School
The music and dance for the program was primarily developed by Livia Vanaver, artistic director of New York's renowned world dance ensemble, the Vanaver Caravan (unfortunately not here today) and Miranda Ten Broeke, a Vanaver troupe veteran here with us tonight. The three other VC troupe members, Marina Lopez, Ramona Staffeld and Gustavo Caldez also present have also contributed in developing several of the spontaneous choreographic marvels you will see this evening.
