Planetarium - A Celestial Spectacle of Fusion Bellydance
Presented by Rose Calavera

Saturday, August 17th 2024 / Doors 7pm / Show 8pm

Tickets here!!

Foothills Performing Arts & Civic Center
24 Market Street, Oneonta, NY 13820

Lovers of dance, outerspace, or all things esoteric: this show is for you! "Planetarium: A Celestial Spectacle of Fusion Bellydance" seeks to illustrate the cosmos through languid shape-making and dazzling storytelling. Produced by Oneonta's own Rose Calavera, the show features local performers as well as brightly burning stars from the US and Canada. Join these dancers on August 17th for a journey across the Universe.

Fusion bellydance is rooted in the folkdance traditions of the Middle East, North Africa, and Eastern Europe. Since the Egyptian style of Raqs Sharki arrived in the United States in the early 20th century, dancers such as Ruth St. Denis, Jamila Salimpour, and Rachel Brice have been studying and repurposing the movements, fusing them thoughtfully with anything from Indian Classical Dance to Hip-Hop.

All ages welcome / Cash bar for 21+
