Pa | Ethos & Dancing Philosophy 26.8.2022 8PM 27.8.2022 3PM 27.8.2022 8PM 28.8.2022 3PM Auditorium, Sha Tin Town Hall $320 | $260 | $180 When moving bodies and moving minds intersect ‘Tableaux’ and ‘keep dancing’ appear to be at both ends of the spectrum, but they actually gravitate towards each other. Between stillness and rhythm, what will the body and the mind spark off? Pa | Ethos depicts the condensation of pure bodily movements, while Dancing Philosophy transforms thoughts into spatial movements; both works explore the collision and association between the body and the spiritual world respectively through pure dance movements and lecture performance. These exchanges let any boundaries vanish. CCDC juxtaposes these two contrasting works, inviting the audience to keep their minds open and eyes active. Let’s ride the wind, step into the cross-disciplinary yaw, and keep flowing. Pa | Ethos Dance at the Pinnacle of Poetry Amidst the aestheticism of sculptures, dancers set free the bountiful primal passion beneath with the optimum rhythm. Infinite possibilities are born between the movement and stillness of imagination, presenting a branch of aesthetics beyond compare. Inspired by Aristotle’s Art of Rhetoric, this work has toured 11 times in Italy, the Mainland and other locations before staging in Hong Kong with a special version. Choreographer Sang Jijia’s exquisite sensibility and composer Dickson Dee’s spirited electronic music are welded together to reshape the poetry of the body. “Classical philosophy, oriental thought, electronic music and dance come together in a refined and passionate show.“ – Marche Teatro Choreography Sang Jijia Original Music Dickson Dee Rehearsal Master & Performance Bruce WONG Performance Suyi HON, Natalie KO, Eric KWONG, Bobo LAI, Shirley LOK, Simpson YAU Guest Performance Charlie LEUNG*, Kelvin MAK*, Gigi YANG Contributing Dance Artists Felix KE, Peggy LAM, Brian YAM^ Lighting Design Lawmanray Original […]
