LIGHT IT UP

Rainbow Dance Theatre is at the Evergreen Cultural Centre (1205 Pinetree Way, Coquitlam) to perform iLumiDance, a dance show using cutting-edge technology. Be part of an undersea world where sea creatures seem to float, swim and dance, and land animals join in the party. The facility is allowing for a 100 per cent capacity, as the provincial health orders are easing; however, proof of vaccination is required for ticket-holders. Showtime is 7 p.m. Tickets are $35/$32/$15.
