Ancient court dances are one of the long-lost treasures of China. Resplendent, exquisite and ceremonious, they showcase not only China’s aesthetic achievement in the art of dancing but also her traditional culture in rite, music, etiquette, costume, poetry and song. To recover these hidden riches, Hong Kong Dance Company joins forces with the Classical Dance Department of Beijing Dance Academy to present Dream of the Past: Ancient Chinese Court Dances. The performance recreates, with extensive reference to archaeological archives, a representative collection of Chinese court dances from different times.
Join us in this journey to the past to explore the grandeur of the precious long-lost dance and culture of ancient China, in the Hong Kong premiere of Dream of the Past: Ancient Chinese Court Dances.
