Let’s sing and dance! Okinawan concert in Torrance
On Sunday, May 19, 2:00 p.m., the Okinawa Association of America (OAA) will bring the sights, sounds, and spirit of the Ryūkyū Islands to the James R. Armstrong Theatre in Torrance, CA.
Titled “Utayabira, Wuduyabira” – which means "let's sing, let's dance" in Uchinaaguchi (the native Okinawan language) – this biennial concert is one of the only recurring events in Los Angeles that focuses on the performing arts of Okinawa.
