The Minnesota Chinese New Year Gala Celebration to be held on Feb. 13, 2011 has become a hot topic in local Chinese-American circles. The “Embrace China” All-Star Performing Troop, organized by the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, will be coming to Minnesota again during the 2011 Chinese Spring Festival!
Unlike previous performances which featured primarily local talent, this gala celebration will focus on the meticulously selected best numbers of the All-Star visiting troop, giving the audience in Minnesota the opportunity to enjoy nationally-renowned artists from China.
“Embrace China”, established by the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, is a very important platform for cultural exchanges between China and the outside world, promoting Chinese culture and friendship around the globe. In recent years, this series of cultural performances has provided a venue for artists to deliver greetings to the overseas Chinese communities from their native homeland while promoting Chinese culture allowing more people to learn about and know China. With respect to the location, Minnesota does not have the advantages of large cities such as New York, Washington, DC, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Nevertheless, in recent years, through the collaborative hard work of local Chinese American community organizations, we have been able to take advantage of the opportunity to have these visiting performing troops which include some nationally-renowned stars. Many volunteers from various community organizations have contributed to the success of each performance in Minnesota. Their hard work has received high praise from the organizers of the performance as well as from visiting artists. During the Spring Festival of 2010, Minnesota hosted another cultural series of the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, entitled “Carnival China Style” Chinese New Year Gala Celebration. Mai Chen, the Director of the Cultural Exchange Department of the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese commented: “Our successful performance in Minnesota was most enthusiastically received. The Chinese American communities in Minnesota are more able to host high quality shows than many large cities.”
The China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese continues to demonstrate strong support for “Embracing China’s” visiting performances. We have learned that since its debut in the 2008 Chinese New Year, “Embrace China” has sent 23 performing troops to over 80 cities in 33 countries and regions putting on 112 performances. Over the years, the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese has organized over 50 performing arts troops, with over 300 shows in more than 40 countries and regions worldwide.
The shows this year will be rich and colorful, including traditional singing and dances, folk hand shadow show, ventriloquy and magic. Here below are some of the artists:
