LNYF 2012 | To Be a Dragon

In 2012, we will celebrating the Year of the Dragon. The Dragon is a mystical animal existing only in legends, and derives inspiration from a collection of animals (body of a snake, claws of an eagle, etc). Being the mightiest of the signs, Dragons symbolize such character traits as dominance, ambition, and success. In honor of this grand and legendary creature, the theme of this year's show, "To Be a Dragon," highlights the idea conveyed by a famous Chinese saying "Wangzichenglong" -- that parents want their children to grow up to be Dragons. In the show, we hope to explore the various interpretations of what it is means to grow up to be a "Dragon," and the obstacles and successes met along the journey to becoming one.
