Entitled 'Greek Mythology in Motion', Howick High School's performance at the 2016 'Funk!' production was dramatic and educational. The dance told the story of Hades, God of the Underworld, who kidnaps Persephone, daughter of Demeter, to be his Queen. Demeter, distraught over the loss of her daughter, neglects her task as God of the Harvest, in order to search for Persephone and bring her home. This year the show was staged at the Hexagon Theatre in Pietermaritzburg and our Dance Company can be congratulated on their refreshingly enjoyable performance.
