Zhang Hao was rehearsing with other members of the Leshan Song and Dance Troupe in Sichuan province on the afternoon of May 12, 2008, when suddenly they felt a series of powerful shocks.
"The ground was moving strongly and everything was shaking," Zhang said. The group turned on the TV, and realized they were in the middle of China's worst earthquake in 23 years.
Communications were cut, and since most of their families lived in other parts of the province, Zhang and his fellow dancers could do nothing but wait anxiously.
