A Thousand Cranes: A Dance for Faith

DateTuesday, September 13, 2011 at 11:13AM

On the night of September 12, 2011, Boston Ballet and the Japanese Disaster Relief Fund - Boston held a special event to mark the six month period since the disaster in Tohoku.  

Principal Dancer Misa Kuranaga and other outstanding dancers from Boston Ballet preformed breathtaking pieces at the studio in the Boston Ballet headquarters. 

The last performance was created by Misa herself, specifically for this special evening.  With Emily Fish's footage of Tohoku in the background, each dancer handed red paper cranes to Misa, who shaped the cranes into a circle that symbolized the Japanese flag.  The act was performed along with live music by traditional Japanese instruments and vocals.  The sensational performance brought tears to every eye.
