Abstract
Folk dances of four different countries, performed by the Mandala Folk Dance Ensemble, are preceded by vignettes of celebrations among immigrants from these countries and their American descendants. The celebrations are the eve of St. Patrick's Day (Ireland), an Italian anniversary, Greek Easter festivities, and a Polish wedding. A New England contra dance completes the program.
