Description
The Belt and Road cities are a colourful reserve of history. Meanwhile, global modernisation and popular culture have brought renewal and transformation to these cities. In 2017, the maestri and young artists of traditional and contemporary art forms from the Belt and Road cities will convene in Hong Kong to carry out exchanges through their creative works, including theatre and dance, staged with the setup of One Table Two Chairs concept adapted from Xiqu (traditional Chinese theater/opera). These artists will conduct demonstrations and solo performances in a theatre cladded with mirrors on four sides creating infinite reflections and experimentations between the traditional and the contemporary.
The Belt and Road maestri in both traditional and contemporary performing arts, teaming up with emerging artists, will bring Hong Kong four distinctive performance programmes, creating solo/duet and workshop-led short pieces.
