Introducing Kingston Grand Online
In this time of self-isolation and physical distancing, we are seeking new ways of sharing our love of the performing arts. We invite you to virtually join us through Kingston Grand Online where we will share digital performances, stories of previous artists that performed on our stage, highlight our staff, program changes and what’s to come, and provide you with a little history about the Grand.
Some highlights so far:
Ailey II - alvinailey.org/performances-tickets/ailey-all-access
Ailey II performed three glorious times on our stage - Jan 21, 2009; Oct 15, 2010; and Oct 23, 2014. You can enjoy Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater from home through their new Ailey All Access page - workshops, full-length performances, and more.
Gandini Jugglers - culturewhisper.com/r/dance/gandini_juggling_smashed_streaming/
Gandini Jugglers presented SIGMA on March 19, 2019 - Sigma on our stage and it was spectacular. The world-famous Gandini Jugglers, dazzling Bharatanatyam dancers and choreographer Seeta Patel. This hit of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival stunned our audience with beauty and artistry.
Gandini Juggling said it best - "In these troubled times the only thing we have to offer is our juggling; to us the most important of the less important things."
Over the next few weeks, they will be releasing a few full videos of past shows.
Smashed - available now until April 23, 2020 (75 minutes)
