Guyana’s National Dance Company (NDC) staged their first public performance of 2013 with a full dance production at the Theatre Guild Playhouse in February. This was Thoughts of Love 6, directed by choreographer Vivienne Daniel, an annual presentation by the company whose performance helps to define the work and functions of this state funded company. It also helps to clarify the method of the dance group as far as their annual cycle of work is concerned.
Thoughts of Love is the first of five productions on the NDC calendar. The others were announced as African Rhythms, followed by Caribbean Rhythms, the major production each year – Dance Season, and Christmas Fantasia staged in the festive season.
