Inextinguishable Shine of Originality.

Hong Kong has nearly 350,000 foreign domestic workers. On Sundays you can see them in public squares and parks; a street view unique to this city. These ‘maids’ flew from their homes to work in another home. Each week they work for six days performing household chores, taking care of children and the elderly. For one day a week, they are guitarists, photographers, rugby players… themselves. In English, Cantonese and Tagalog, with English, Cantonese and Bahasa (Indonesian).

Constellations is a dance cocktail of vivid colours, shapes and games conceived after the imagery by the great Spanish artist, Joan Miró.  Taking inspiration by a series of works in which Joan Miró shows his wonder with the space, choreographer Enrique Cabrera fills his imaginary blank canvas with wonderful dance, ingenious puppetry and terrific digital visuals with the company's trademark playfulness, creativity and style.
