Canada Day #2 An Inside Peek

As mentioned in my last Canada Day post, Monica was performing at the National Arts Centre (NAC) Grand Re-Opening for Prince Charles and 149 other dignitaries. The NAC was in lockdown, so if you were not one of those 150 invited guests or one of the artists, you were outside looking in or somewhere else (like me).
Here are a few inside photos...
Prince Charles,  Governor General David Johnson and his wife her excellency Sharon Johnson, and Heritage minister Mélanie Joly. I do not know the lady in black...

Monica with National Ballet of Canada trio

Transitions from one group to the next were beautifully done. Propeller Dance, National Ballet of Canada, a hip hop solo (more like contemporary ballet) and an Aboriginal group)

Grand Finale with all four groups dancing together
