The
PHILIPPINE DANCE COMPANY of Boston, Inc. (PDCo) displays the true
spirit of volunteerism, cooperation, friendly and harmonious
association. A non-profit group, its main objective is to preserve
and promote the Philippine’s rich cultural heritage. Where else can
we start to perpetuate our Philippine culture, but with our own
families! The company has provided a place for our American born
children not only to be conscious of their culture, but to
appreciate, learn and be proficient in performing traditional
Philippine folk dances.
The
members have represented the Filipino-American community at various
ethnic festivals and community events not only in the Boston area
but throughout the New England states.
The
dance company’s repertoire provides a window for the diverse and
rich cultural heritage of the Philippines, its customs and
traditions, its many regions and the people’s different ways of
life, their love for the beauty of the nature that surrounds them,
their gaiety and friendliness. To achieve its purpose, the
PHILIPPINE DANCE COMPANY of Boston knows there indeed is no better
way to showcase, promote and preserve a country’s and it’s people’s
cultural history than through a panorama of dances, music and songs.
