Tsegyalgar’s Winning Team, Dream Dancer

Dream Dancer
Tsegyalgar East

Liberetto:
The curtain opens on a Community’s ceremonial celebration.  By virtue of the infinite love within the Community, a young child manifests.  She is the Dream Dancer.   She begins to explore her surroundings and soon falls into a dream upon a Rainbow.  During the dream she experiences dance throughout the ages, and discovers that each dance bestows upon her the knowledge of one of the 5 elements. When she awakens from her dream she is surrounded by her Community and its celebration of the Rainbow Body.  Everyone in the audience is encouraged to join in the festivities and to continue dancing together beyond time and space.
