Benefit Event
Because hearts always resonate better in unison, people tend to get together on a loved one’s birthdate to sing a heartfelt “Happy Birthday”.
But what about when it comes to celebrating the 35th anniversary of Sylvain Émard Danse? Why, that of course calls for a new version of Le Grand Continental, an exhilarating contemporary line dance show that has been electrifying audiences around the world since its inception in 2009!
LE GRAND CONTINENTAL remix, a festive benefit event that’s sure to be a highlight of the Montréal season, will bring together some 30 personalities from the arts and business communities, accompanied by a lively group of the company’s friends and fans, to perform onstage.
Hosted by honorary co-presidents Sophie Ducharme, National Bank Vice President - Leader Transformation and the actress Danielle Proulx, the evening will feature a stellar cast dancing this Continental Best of, an enticing mix of various iterations of this renowned dance concept. Hard to imagine what could be better!
On November 3 at 8 p.m., these one-time-only dancers will present an exclusive performance in front of a jubilant crowd for twenty mind-blowing minutes. And as the icing on the cake, all present will raise a glass to the 35th anniversary of Sylvain Émard Danse during a dessert cocktail reception after the show.
