USC CASA's 12th Annual Culture Show

LEGACY

February 20, 2011
Bovard Auditorium
7:00 PM

Doors open at 6:30 PM

LEGACY follows the journey of a contemporary young man from Los Angeles who is reluctant to embrace his heritage and unable to find his cultural identity. Upon desecrating a centuries-old ceremony, he discovers himself in imperial China, where he must navigate his way through unfamiliar territory in search of a way back home.

As the entire kingdom prepares for the grand engagement ceremony between Princess Jia Rong and the legendary General Chen Hsu, a deadly plot to overthrow the dynasty looms over the horizon.

It is here, amidst the fervor and excitement, that he comes face-to-face with his ancestor.
Sounds pretty epic. The event will feature special performances by Joseph Vincent, Wushu Nation, Traditional Chinese Dance and Chaotic 3. For more information about the show, go to the CASA Legacy website here and the Facebook event page here.
