LIVE STREAMING ON ZOOM

One ticket, two performances, four perspectives. Have an exceptional Christmas with us!

Although they are strangers to each other, the dance artist and the audience will spend this Christmas together. An intimate experience, yet separated by social distancing. CCDC resident artist Noel Pong has choreographed her first solo performance Social Distancing Theatre Joyeux Noël.

The first live performance online at 5pm will be taken in a single shot, carefully arranged by Noel and the director. In a small room that looks like a black box, she will gradually narrow the distance between the performer and the audience, sparking an intimate discussion in our hearts. In the meet-the-artist session after the show, Artistic Director Designate Yuri Ng will discuss the background and creative journey of the piece with Noel. Please send your questions to us online.

The performance at 9pm will also be streamed live online. Three professional photographers and director will join hands to present Noel’s piece from different angles through their camera lenses. Using Zoom, the audience can watch four unique shots simultaneously and interpret Noel’s message from multiple angles. Viewers will have the chance to select a view or choose to watch through all four lenses at the same time. The photographers will join the meet-the-artist session after the performance to discuss the relationship between filming and being filmed.

Social Distancing Theatre Joyeux Noël is presented as part of Freespace’s CCDC in Residence 2020. The three-year CCDC in Residence programme is part of West Kowloon’s commitment to establish long-term partnerships with local and international arts organisations. In this programme, CCDC partners with Freespace to bring over a dynamic dance experience to audiences of all ages.
