The Philharmonic Society of Orange County

Tickets for the much-anticipated performance of the Bayanihan Philippine National Dance Company are now on sale!

The exotic rhythms and brilliant colors of traditional Filipino dance and dress will thrill Orange County audiences as the Bayanihan Philippine National Dance Company returns after their sold-out performance during the Society's opening season at the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in 2006.

Founded in 1957, the Bayanihan Philippine Dance Company takes its name from the ancient Filipino tradition of Bayanihan, which signifies working together for the common good, and seeks to promote international understanding through cultural exchange and performances abroad. As the first Filipino group to perform on Broadway, Bayanihan also has the distinction of being the first non-American dance company to take to the stage at New York's Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, as well as the first Philippine cultural group to perform in Russia, the People's Republic of China and South America.

But he had a vision the land could be used for something even more productive, and, in the Sixties, he converted some of that land to a mall. Over the years, that seed of an idea has grown into one of the country’s most productive shopping centers, South Coast Plaza.
