About the Choreography
The Olympic Dancers portray
the grand procession in the first Olympic Games in 776 B.C. followed by
the first Olympic race. The statue figures portray the twelve winter
Olympic events. The dance concludes by exalting the Olympic Motto of
“higher, faster, stronger” and the themes of the Games which include
unity, excellence, having an open mind, and peace.
