Marvel at the stunning Taiwanese-based Cloud Gate Dance Theatre as they present Songs of the Wanderers at Jones Hall for one night only on Saturday, April 5, 2014.

In addition to mixing modern and ancient forms of movement, this visually compelling tribute to spiritual pilgrimage is also notable for a dance that occurs amid three-and-a-half tons of shimmering grains of golden rice raining upon the stage.

Songs of the Wanderers creates a world of intense reverence, distinctly Asian in its imagery with relevance that reaches outside of its home continent. The group was Founded by renowned choreographer Lin Hwai-min in 1973 to showcase modern Taiwanese dance technique, but also draws from ballet, martial arts and historical folklore to convey its stories.
