Hemispheres

Centuries ago, the ancestors originating from Asia migrated across the ocean. Some settled down in the Pacific Islands, and some of them travelled even further to New Zealand, Hawaii and Easter Island...They dispersed in regions unknown to them, starting whole new lives. Today, two renowned dance companies, the Guangdong Modern Dance Company and the Footnote New Zealand Dance reunion in Asia jointly exploring physical movements and origin.

Following the co-production with an Australian dance company in 2016, the Guangdong Modern Dance Company collaborated with artists from the Southern Hemisphere once more, the Footnote New Zealand Dance, and created an original full-length modern dance works, Hemispheres, filled with imaginations and dynamics.

The creative team of Hemispheres is teamed up with international talented artists including emerging choreographers Sarah Foster-Sproull and Zahra Killeen-Chance from New Zealand, acclaimed choreographer Wu Chien-wei from Taiwan, China, accomplished electronic musician Eden Mulholland, Emi Pogoni, Alexander Waite Mitchell, genius lighting designer Low Shee Hoe as well as emerging costume designer Zhong Huizhen from Beijing, China. Dancers with diverse culture backgrounds will present a superb dance feast beyond ethnic groups and languages.
