Various artists bring together a showcase of dance pieces from all over Asia. Asia Pacific Dance Platform has been introducing the region’s audacious dance artists to Hong Kong and overseas audiences in the past four years. This year, the three choreographers/dancers bring their singular perspectives to reflect on life’s fury and frustration.

Eight dancers from around the world and five of Ireland’s top musicians unite with Fabulous Beast’s artistic director/choreographer Michael Keegan-Dolan and musicial director Liam Ó Maonlaí in an expressive hybrid. Rian is universal in appeal, quintessentially Irish in character, and deeply rooted in Celtic heritage.

It also draws on concepts from Yi Jing (the Book of Change), including evolution and interactions of the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire and earth). Employing traditional yangge props, such as baldachins, drums, sticks and fans, and the specific body language and dance movement associated with them, the ethnic dance performance traces past and present, heaven and earth in a continuum with men.
