7 Seas Of Belly Dance Festival Show

Project 2018-11-20 13:15:38 +1300

MEDANZ* festival 2019 is happening, in April, in Auckland! We'd like to introduce your Festival Subcommittee for 2019: Agate, Gillian, Setsuna, and Aida. We're based here in Auckland and are looking forward to seeing you at Festival next year in Auckland, and meeting those of you that we don't know already. You can find us all on Facebook, and email us directly at our dedicated Festival Address: [email protected], and of course via the committee email. 

The theme this year is the Seven Seas of Belly Dance. It reflects the diversity of belly dance in NZ, as well as pays homage to the distant seas where our beloved dance’s roots came from. Just like the seven seas, our belly dance inspirations come from around the globe, from the styles we have learned, to the dancers we admire. We have a website dedicated to the Festival: Festival Website and this specific page about hte show Show Website

We are the Subcommittee in charge of planning the 2019 Festival for the Middle Eastern Dance Association of New Zealand. We are all dancers who love Belly Dance and are volunteering our time so our communities have a meaningful festival. We want a show that reflects how the dancers in our communities have taken the seven seas of inspiration and made it their own. The theme can be interpreted literally (ocean-themed piece, anyone?) or more figuratively. It’s up to you.  

We want to fund the cost of the Show part of the Festival for 2019. Our survey shows that people value the show part of the festival, but we always lose money on the show and often have not paid our performers. We want to support our community by having a show that will include a profit share for performers.  So the more we make the more they make-after we cover costs the venue, lighting and sound technician, and the static video too because we need a record of the event, but mostly to share the performance with the performers and others who want a copy.

Total: $1000 Venue Hire: $500 Lighting and Sound Technician: $250 Static Video 1080p: $150 

 

* The Middle Eastern Dance Association of New Zealand (MEDANZ) is a non-profit Incorporated Society for dancers and enthusiasts. MEDANZ is the umbrella organization for New Zealand belly dancers and we not only have members with decades of experience but also those just starting on their dance journey. We are the go-to site for New Zealand belly dance. We can point you to teachers that will guide you to become the dancer you want to be. We also provide information on belly dance events including shows, workshops, retreats, and festivals. Plus we can also fill in some of the blanks about the art, practice, and history of belly dance.
