Dragon Dance aims to participate in the preservation of intangible cultural heritage through artistic expression.   During our collective creation workshops, our idea is to create a temporary and mobile Utopia. A place local and international artists, come together and form a provisional community, created for the occasion.   As a group, we can do what we like and want to do; be creative, make things, realize scenes and dramatize moments which comment on history using myths, legends and oral tradition while we bridge with the events of the day. We want to participate in the struggles and society of our times, using our art, our theatre skills and our experience.  We want to be acting preservationists of the intangible cultural heritage of the communities that welcome us. 

We arrange these laboratories/ artist residencies in such a way that we can present our findings to the public, in the theatre or on the street, with pageants, plays, dances, parades and tableaux. We use music, actors, masks, banners, paintings, large masks, puppets, objects, projected images, sculptures and whatever we can invent to tell our stories. In these residencies, we as a community, create an environment where we can focus and concentrate on the chosen themes.
