Two Ways to Dance

This hybrid performance fuses live Ukrainian folk dance with cinematic storytelling.

Two Ways to Dance  by Lehenda Ukrainian Dance Company explores cultural resilience across migration and the digital realm, addressing themes of cultural survival, memory in media, and the enduring power of art during war and displacement.

Two Ways to Dance is a powerful hybrid of live performance and film exploring Ukrainian culture in diaspora. Through choreography and cinematic contrasts, it reflects on identity, memory, and resilience—blending tradition and innovation to reveal how dance preserves culture across borders, generations, and digital space.
