GOLD SPONSOR
Raymond James Ltd. and Graeme May sponsor the premiere of Mozaico Flamenco Dance Theatre’s production, ‘Café de Chinitas’

Raymond James Ltd. and Vancouver investment advisor, Graeme May, wish Mozaico Flamenco Dance Theatre a wonderful performance and best of luck for the debut of ‘Café de Chinitas’ at the Norman Rothstein Theatre in Vancouver on Saturday, October 28, 2006. The company became a corporate Gold Sponsor, donating $5,000 to support Flamenco in Vancouver and World Music, Dance and Arts.

“On behalf of Mozaico Flamenco Dance Theatre, I would like to thank Raymond James and Graeme May for their generous sponsorship of ‘Café de Chinitas’.”, says Kasandra, Project Artistic Director, Choreographer and Dancer, “We feel very fortunate to have financial sponsorship from a prominent company in the private sector. ‘Café de Chinitas’ is our first artistic foray in fusing the mysterious Chinese melodies of the Orchid Ensemble with the fiery footwork of Flamenco. While Flamenco has been fused with other genres, the Chinese-Flamenco fusion has never been done before. This is very fitting for the cultural make up of our city and multiculturalism in Vancouver.”
