Get ready for a night of glitz and glamour in true Bollywood style! SHIAMAK Vancouver is proud to present Winter Funk 2018: The Awards Show on December 1, 2018 at 6pm at the Bell Performing Arts Centre, Surrey.
In the spirit of a true Bollywood Awards Show, more than 300 students have been preparing dance tributes to their favorite Bollywood stars, and will be performing to their most iconic songs in the iconic Bollywood Jazz style!
The SHIAMAK Vancouver Dance Team, the biggest and best Bollywood dance team in BC, is excited to bring a few very special celebrity guests onstage with them - including style icon Kanika Sasan, bhangra superstar Gopi Sian, and Vancouver's favorite radio personality, Gaurav Shah.
SHIAMAK Vancouver will also be taking this opportunity to honour stalwarts of the local dance community with specially created awards. Pamela Rosa of Harbour Dance Centre, Chan Hon Goh of Goh Ballet Academy, Dylan Steyns of North Shore Academy of Dancing and Gurpreet Sian of South Asian Arts will be among those honoured.
As always, the audience will be treated to fun and heartwarming performances by dancers from Shiamak's VICTORY Arts Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that spreads the joy of dance to people of all backgrounds and abilities.
